Is this the recent World Cup trophy??? ( A lady stopped and look upon where i pointed when KC took this picture. So everyone is a "ge boh" by nature!)
Like i mentioned earlier, I will never forget Madrid due to what happened. Besides the unfortunate event of loosing the luggage and the broken camera, we did not really enjoy Madrid because we had walked a little too much. My shoes were too tight and i ended up having blisters and every step i took was like a deep cut and pain to my heart. Poor KC had the same fate too. Maybe we are getting old....
Anyways on the last day of the trip, we decided it was time to take the metro and the public buses to places we wanted because the mentioned of "just a short 10 minutes walk" chilled us to our spines! There are a lot of art galleries in Madrid, one of the must go is the museum where the arts of Van Gor are stored. But, being us, we are not really into arts and sad to say that we do not know how to appreciate them, we decided to go to the Alexander exhibition instead. Yep, Alexander the Great!
It was fun. Too bad we could not take any photos inside. There are even guards in the exhibition to ensure that no one takes any picture.
I should say the bag i was carrying is really heavy but pretty. Thanks to Jessy!
After that we decided to take a short trip to the Real Madrid stadium. Now, before we went there, KC was all slumber about not really wanting to go there and that he was really not that keen. But boy when we reached there, he went crazy snapping pictures of the stadium and the logo over and over again. Sheesh..so much of being humble huh?
Look, here's one fake "real" fan!
Perhaps we were overwhelmed by the incidents the days before. We didnt even bother to take a walk into the Real Madrid museum. Instead, i just took a sneak peek into the stadium.
Peeking beyond the grill...
I love this shot. I felt like a paparazzi using the zoom lens.
Well after that it was lunch of course.He went wild when we reached the Adidas shop where you could get all the Real Madrid merchandises you could imagine! At the end, i ended up having a Real Madrid jersey and he went for the full top and bottom gears, as well as a scarf and even a ashtray. Total spending?? Lots!!! Thank god for the 17% tax refund.
KC with his pork ribs, yummy! (By the way, hat - Mango 12 euro, tee - Hard Rock 28 Euro)
And 5 mini burgers for me too!
It was during lunch that we got to know that our bag was delivered back to the hotel...yada yada.... It turned out that it was a wrong bag and we decided to go back to the airport to settle the mess once and for all. we went back to the airport, got our bag and i felt bored. By the time we reached the hotel, i was exhausted. So the next best thing to do is to just have a simple dinner and off to bed. I guess that is all for Madrid. Not having a blast but it was eventful.
Flower dispenser machines with real flowers for sale at the airport. I wouldn't mind to get one when i land. They are cheap too, ranging from bottom (mixed bunch) 8 euros to roses and lilies 15 euros.
McDonald's chicken burger with bacon cubes in the bread. This is definitely yummilicious.
One thing though, i will remember that it is in Madrid that we are starting our Hard Rock tees collection. People went crazy in the shop. I think they wanted to buy the whole shop. Seriously, there are more customers at the merchandises shop than the restaurant. The serveurs didnt even bother to ask if we need a table when we pushed open the door. I guess they are used to people just going in for the tess.
Are we ever gonna get a second one for ourselves? Well that we will know when we visit Dubai next week.
Okay, Shakira loves this...what about you?
