On Christmas Eve and Day we walked to Retiro park, which reminded us of Central Park in New York.


For sunset we met up at temple David, a 2nd century BCE Egyptian temple that was a gift from Egypt to Spain. It’s reconstructed on a ridge with an amazing westward view. Excellent intel from Zoe and Miles’s friends, we wouldn’t have heard of this site otherwise!



Walking back we saw more holiday lights.


Then back to our apartment for a wonderful Christmas dinner with the group. So yummy and we didn’t even have room for dessert, half a king cake is still in the refrigerator!
Merry Christmas!
