Mad for Madrid

We’re enjoying our time so far here in Madrid. It’s a bit colder than we expected, but we’ve had fun going to the zoo, the botanical gardens, taking the train to the old city of Toledo, checking out the street markets and, of course, taking advantage of plenty of good eats!  Here are a few pics from the first few days:
