Madrid - city exploring

I wandered over to the west side of the central city to see an Egyptian temple on a hill - not very spectacular, but there was a decent view from there.

Walked down the main street (Calle Gran Via) - lots of shops and dept stores, and I noticed they have "Dunkin' Coffee" here instead of Dunkin' Donuts, a name that makes little sense (in English at least).

Stopped for a traditional Spanish tortilla (egg and potato omelette with some filling). Good, but this one was very salty and also huge.

Lots of nice mini-parks between streets here. Also lots of monuments/statues like the Puerta de Alcala pictured.Read more
