7 February
I’m thinking I should’ve relaxed more in Samui or have I forgotten how hectic we get when we get going? Back at the hotel after a 14km walk, past the Palacio Real & followed our noses to the Museo Reina Sofia to fulfil one of my life’s dreams; to see Guernica right before my eyes. Simply my favourite painting ever & it didn’t disappoint. It is huge! Unfortunately no photos allowed in that section of the museum. Sketches and drawing studies also abound. I could’ve stayed for hours just looking at it, it’s that gobsmacking, even Mandy was impressed. Lots of Dali’s as well but never was into him. Headed, well Mandy pried me out, for a walk through the Parque del Retiro which was beautiful, and huge. Some lunch by the lake then a meandering walk back via lanes, streets & plazas. Off to the roof now so Mandy can re-hydrate. More adventures tomorrow after an early night.
