My trip to Madrid

On Tuesday the 8th of April we went by bus to the Girona's train station. There, we took the AVE to Madrid, the capital city of Spain. While waiting, we did a luggage race.
The first place we visited was the “Congreso de los Diputados”. We had lunch at “El museo del jamón” in the city center. After that, we visited the Prado Museum and relaxed walking around the Retiro park. Finally we saw the “Puerta de Alcalá”. At the end of the day, we returned to the hostel and unpacked the luggage.

On the second day we had breakfast and then we visited a lot of places: la plaza del Sol, la plaza Mayor, el Palacio Real, la Almudena cathedral, the Xi'an army... and also la plaza Neptuno, Cibeles and the Madrid Council. We wanted to eat something local, so we went to have dinner at la Plaza Mayor and had a “bocata calamares”.

On the last day we saw the Gran Vía's shops and flats. We visited la plaza España and el Templo de Debod too. We ended the trip seeing the Madrid's senado. We returned to Girona by AVE. There we took a bus, again, to Banyoles.


We had a lot of fun during this trip and interviewing the local people. We also had some free time to enjoy ourselves and buy souvenirs. We learnt a lot of new things in three days.
