After the Picasso museum, we took a stroll around the Parc de la Ciutadella. It used to be the site of a fort built when Madrid wanted to keep a close eye on the local population. That fort wasn't very well liked so when it was torn down it got replaced by this impressive fountain.
One of Ming's requirements is that we have at least one shot of us in each major city. Makes sense I guess, but it's hard to find people that can compose a picture without cutting off the head of something in the shot. At least it wasn't us this time.
From there is was back to our hotel to do a slap-dash packing job before catching a taxi to the port. We checked our luggage, and (since I'm the one writing) I carried the rest:
It took a while before our rooms were ready, but it was worth the wait. We have a port-side balcony room, where the views have been great so far.
It wasn't long before we were at sea, drifting towards our first destination: Monte Carlo.
