Dear Friends and Family,
I have certainly left figuring out my blog to the last minute. Bill and I are leaving for our 3-month Grand Tour of Europe the day after tomorrow on April 2. We got confirmation of our reservations from the hotel today. Hotel Plaza Mayor is in a 200-year-old building with no elevators. It seems to have lots of old world charm, and it's very close to cava-baja where we hope to do a Tapas crawl. If you've never had tapas, they are yummy appetizer-sized morsels in many shapes, sizes, and flavors. Since we arrive in Madrid early Wednesday morning, I hope we can take a nap and then go out at night to explore Cava Baja. Madrilenos don't even get started until 10 pm, so I think a nap will be a good idea. We don't want to wimp out completely on our first night in Europe. A little red wine and a few tapas sound like a great introduction to our Grand Tour and to Spain.
