The last day of the tour always comes to soon. Over the last couple of weeks we have seen a great deal together, we've sampled some wonderful food, visited some of the most impressive monuments and drank some truly wonderful wine. Today is a day to take it easy, to visit the city of Madrid, take in a museum (or two) and just let the Spanish hospitality wash over you. After a leisurely breakfast at the hotel, the group was off to visit the famous museum area, and to take their pick of one of Madrid's three most famous museums. In the end, they decided on the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum as the sole museum, not wanting to overdo it on their last day. An afternoon at leisure with a bit of a siesta was in store, and we met up at 7:45 for our last dinner. After a quick glass of wine at the hotel bar, we headed to the Restaurante Chic for a bit of modern Spanish fare to provide the offer the opportunity to see how Spanish cuisine has been growing. It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening, and we talked about the highlights and how it was so difficult to choose just one. I hope that Rita, Ranbir and Ila enjoyed themselves, and I hope that rather than a visit to the sites in Spain they discovered a bit of Spain itself in the old streets, monuments, food and people that they met along the way.
