sabado, 11 de octubre: Followed by another lazy morning, our day trip commenced at 2:00 as we boarded the Cercanias to Aranjuez. About 4o minutes later, we arrived the station of this quaint, restful town, venturing to the Palacio Real. Unfortunately, we could not take pictures inside the palace. I would have loved to share the eccentric and at times Disney-like design. Reminiscent of EPCOT, each room reflected its own distinct style or theme, for example: Victorian furnishings with female mythological figures in pastel colors; 2-dimensional, Oriental ceramic reliefs stylized in bold colors; and an Arabic sitting room, meticulously decorated with colorful and intricately painted tiles. We ate the menú del día at a local restaurant, shopped for shoes, and arrived the gardens to find them prematurely closed. I enjoyed a snooze on the train before returning home to fix dinner and drinks. We walked just past Gran Via to a bar called Costello's and later went to El Sol, a nightclub one block further. We got caught in rain on our way home; following which, Adam marveled at the lightning from my patio while I promptly and comfortably passed out in my bed before he even came back in!
Happy Holidays from My Little Family to Yours!!!
