We attempted to go to Avila today, but we confused the train schedule, so we took a train instead to El Escorial. There wasn’t too much to see; we walked around a bit and then had some hamburgers at a restaurant. There’s a monastery there but we didn’t have enough time to see it, since the following train to Madrid left soon after lunchtime.
When we arrived to Madrid we went to the Reina Sofia and saw several exhibits, one of Paul Thek which was pretty interesting. Photos, paintings, images of New York everywhere… The city in a state of constant change, when I see it from the thousand perspectives of artists…
The bus which took us home.
