After Toledo, we returned to Madrid to run many, many errands. None were fun. First, we drove back to Madrid with no breakfast once again! And we had to take five million detours on the way since apparently every road leading into Madrid is under construction. That was followed by a lot of running around in circles trying  to take care of things before offices closed.

Once that  first round of errands finished, we checked into a hotel and FINALLY went to eat. The day was  a true test of my patience. A lesser person would have had a complete meltdown – being dragged all over the city, hot and hungry. And I’m convinced that half of all Madrid is under construction! Each block is halfway dug up with loud machines drilling into the cement. I damn near lost it! And to top it all off, while we were walking around, a bird shit on me!
