Five hours at The Prado (3,000 paintings) required another meander to find refreshment at Mercado San Miguel a 19th Century confection of glass, lacy steel, gourmet tapas and that effervescent Spanish friendliness. Paper cones of sardines and calamari,grilled whole squid, mozzarella buratta, fluffy croquettes all finished off with espresso and chocolate "salami" cookies. Returned to The Prado to stay until closing. Chuck has purchased 40 pounds of books. Not great shoulder therapy, but so good for the soul.
