Madrid Has “Mucha Marcha”

Locations

Madrid nights are long, the locals escape the warm weather and eat late, and party even later.

Despite the Spanish rhythym I managed to get a few pictures of the beatuiful city in daylight. It’s very clean and modern (during the day at least) and even the airport offered a few interesing subjects:
