Madrid, Spain Day 1

So here it is:

The first day we flew from SLC at 4:40pm and flew for 11 hours over to Paris. We had a small layover of only about 45 min. and then boarded a different plane that would get us to Madrid.

Us at the SLC airport ready to go!



Once we arrived in Madrid the first thing we did was find our hotel to put our things down and make a game plan





We decided we wanted to try and go see a bullfight while we were there. We figured when in Spain... do as the Spaniards right? So we went to see if we could get tickets. They have them almost every night so we were hoping there were still some seats available. There were! So we bought our tickets and then went to find somewhere to eat since we still had an hour until it started







It was incredible! It was really sad at first because they kill the bulls and they never even stand a chance, but it was an amazing experience. We saw about 6 bulls and then it was over. After the fight we just walked around the city until we got too tired and went back to the room. Here are some sites we saw while strolling...





Day 2 to come...
