Last day - boo!

This morning I told the boy I needed to take it easy as we weren't going to the airport till 5pm. He agreed and then trasped me around the city on foot for a good few hours until we realised we were leaving the bottom of the map. We found a fab souvenir shop though finally (handmade crafts is not much of a thing in Madrid!) and purchased a chicken jug and a bird water whistle for Esther (no Christmas decs though - boo again!).

We then walked many more miles to La Venencia, where Ernest Hemmingway spent many days writing over a sherry or two. The bar hasn't changed since the 30's and only sold 5 different sherrys and tap water, not good when pregnant. Me and Esther enjoyed the ambience and the free crisps and olives though (pictured), while the boy pretended to enjoy the sherry surrounded by locals.

A quick dip of our feet in the pool before the taxi arrived to take us to the airport. A lovely lovely week, who said you can't travel with kids ay?
