Madrid

I have been to Madrid for the weekend. A double family celebration:a 70th birthday party and a christening. We had a party at a restaurant called Olsen which my nephew runs. Beautiful food. It is 40 years since I was last there and Madrid has changed considerably. I just remember Plaza Major but I have never seen the Museum of Queen Sofia or the Thyssen Bornametza art collection which used to be in Lugano before. The Picassos, particularly 'Guernica' are memorable.
