First things first, beer.
The proprietor was so proud. The singular beer he served was Modelo Especial on tap.
Tostado con humus, pimento y tapenade.
The other tostado as you can see is jamon served with potato chips topped with olivos. Mike you would love it here!
After our lunch we walk to the Thyssen Bornemiza Museum.
Hiperrealismo is the exhibit we try to see, but it is sold out. We end up buying tickets for the "Impressionism and Open-air Paiting From Corot to Van Gogh" exhibit. We were able to buy tickets for Realissimo show on Sat.
Van Gogh - Landscape Under A Stormy Sky
Corot - Storm Study
This was a great exhibit of artist's lesser known paintings to me in the "Open Air" genre.
3 sculptures by Rodin
It's Good Friday and the crowds gather to view the Semana Santa procession of Easter. Penetentes carry statues of the Virgin Mary followed by a brass band. Unfotunately, Madrid's Semana Santa in our area was caceled because of rain.
Modelo Especial on tap. Yum Scrum! My favorite: Corot - Storm Study...I would like to hear which pieces you enjoyed the most. I love you.
