April-28-2025,
Last day in Europe and returning via Madrid, Spain’s Capital.
I’de been here 4 days, worked out the metro swipe cards, maps,
the staccato Spanish, the food and late night entertainments after
museums – More snacks and walking, humming an average five miles a day also.
Last Airbnb on the 9th floor of an apartment a few miles SW of the Center. a regular Madrid family, three generations AND a toddler
who looks mystified at my slurred Spanish…
The airport is 12 miles away and the efficient metro system goes the whole way from her door with only 2 changes- Checkout: 12:00 pm as arranged, Board the Metro with my 10lb Yahoo! backpack and we are OFF!

On the Road with One thing or Another!
Gatwick Dubrovnik
It’s raining like mad here around midnight, it is in England after all at 70 degrees.. waitng for the 3:30 AM Ride with family to Gatwick Airport.. so we can go to:
Dubrovnik! It is the ancient medieval city in the Republic of Croatia former part of the nation of Yugoslavia… I’ll be returning there for the first time in 31 years because my niece Lia (from my dear Big bro. Ion) plus Gary chose this lovely place to tie the knot!..
More later that’s it for now!!
