Cereal Cafe & Crystal Palace

Guess what we found!! A CEREAL CAFE!

Also, we went there for breakfast and they gave us the weirdest looks for ordering regular cereal (Honey Bunches of Oats) without adding any Whoppers, M&M's, or other extreme amounts of chocolate... I think that this was intended to be more of a dessert place than a cereal breakfast place. 

Anyway, the milk was blue!!



After breakfast, Marijka and I went to the Crystal Palace in Retiro Park.





Bird Sanctuary





The Crystal Palace was one of my absolute favorite spots in Madrid. It is was a greenhouse created for the king when Retiro was owned and held by the royal family. Now, it is a part of the Reina Sofia Museum of Modern Art. The Crystal Palace had an exibit featuring the names of individuals who have lost their lives while trying to come to Spain by boat. The names were carved into the floor of the building, and water was poured into the engraving to spell out the names of the individuals.













Turtles!




The structure is altogether beautiful.



TAKE ME BACK!

Abrazos,

Olga
