Madrid - a royal city - The Bhatia/Heinrichs Tour Day 8

A sunny bright awaited us upon meeting Richard at the Royal Palaces, one of Europe's truly spectacular palaces. The day was promising and the visit continued from the Royal Palace. Unfortunately, not everything can be accounted for, and Ila's purse was stolen before the tour really got started. So we met back at the hotel and sorted everything out. By 3:00 we had cancelled all the cards and filed the police report, and made arrangements to get to the embassy first thing in the morning. As the day was still sunny, they decided to continue the tour. After a quick bite at the Museo del Jamon we met up with Richard again at the Plaza Mayor and he took them through Madrid's winding and wonderful history. By the time they arrived back at the hotel, they had done their fair share of walking, and with Toledo on the horizon we had a quick dinner and off to bed!
