Day 3 & 4 - Walking Madrid - Madrid, Spain

June 19-20, 2026 - biked 0 km (0 mi) - biked 2 km (1.2 mi) total

We walked. That we did for two days. That's what one does when we'd have to carry our bikes up and down five flights of stairs and there's nowhere to lock them up when we get wherever we are going. So our bikes rested while Sarah's new shoes were put to the test.

We did a walking tour, visited some markets, some free art museums, had lunch wine, tried to watch world cup games, and saw a Flamenco show.

It's a really great city to walk. We learned that whenever we are tired, we are actually hungry. That Irish pubs are too crowded with people watching soccer to actually watch soccer. And that the metro and wine should be this cheap every where.

We enjoyed the Flamenco dance the most. We enjoyed it in a very intimate space with about 20 other people. Three dancers, one singer and one guitar player expressed their heart and culture with such talent. They put so much effort. It was so visible in the sweat and marks on the stage.

As we watched the sunset, there was a little thunderstorm.
