Today we arrived in Madrid! After dropping our stuff at the apartment, us and our friend Andi set off to explore.

We got off the subway and made an important first stop. Chocolate churros. They were not that amazing, but I guess that means we will be healthier this trip!

After that, we walked around the outside of the palace, through some squares and pedestrian streets, and stopped at a gourmet food market.

The thinner ones are churros and the thicker ones are porras. You take a churro/porra and dip it in chocolate.

P.S. Churros would improved with more chocolate.
