wonderful to walk with you!

Finn said...

thank you Jane for the glimpse to Madrid! i once was there, years ago, stood in a square, saw the people around, music was coming from somewhere unknown, it felt like home, slightly different faces, different language, i thought i could stay and live here and get older
(soon they found me and called me back :)

anna said...

Thank you for this perfect sundaymorning walk!

Bichos da Matos said...

It looks lovely!! Have a great weekend!

Allison said...

Wow... you have at least one "follower" for every day of the year! Sometimes when I "pop" in, I think yeah, I'm comment number 87 so I'll just wait until next time. Now I think I made it to number 8!

Just wanted to say "hello". We made it back from our show and are just busy catching up. As usual, lovely photos that makes one really want to travel and see it all!

Schöne Grüße aus Hamburg!

Allison said...

O.K... took to long to write it and made it to number 10, but that is way better than 87!

Have a great weekend!

I love Madrid.
Big besos dear Jane :)

Jenny said...

It looks more colorful than it did in 1965 when I was there. I do remember staying in a hotel that had a little balcony like the ones you have posted. I still have my Majorca pearls I bought with my last $20.

Emily Young said...

Oh, these photos are so beautiful. They take me back to my trip to Madrid two years ago, when I fell in love with the Parque del Retiro. But I never saw a bakery with such delicious looking cookies - if I ever have the chance to go back, I'm definitely tracking down that shop and sampling! Thanks for taking us on a tour : )
