Back home in Madrid after a month-long tour of the US... More on that in a different post (I still need time to process it all).
It feels good to be back. We're all whacky from the jet-lag, so Oscar was hanging up laundry at 4:00am and we slept until 4:00pm. We had breakfast and then went out for a walk on Gran Via to buy shoes for Oscar (we had planned on getting some in the US, since everything is cheaper there, but Oscar is hooked on these fancy Italian shoes that "breathe"). We tried to have dinner at 8:15, because we wanted to see a puppet show at 10:00 (yes, 10pm), but it was too early for dinner so we just kept walking around. Still in American mode, I thought that maybe I had read the puppet schedule wrong, but, when we got there, of course the place was full of little kids and their parents. All summer they do puppet theater in the Retiro every Saturday and Sunday. It was a Mexican puppeteer--Oscar loved it. We walked back through Puerta de Acalá, Cibeles, Puerta del Sol, the Plaza Mayor. Oscar was so excited to see all of these again. It seems like he was afraid that they wouldn't be there anymore after being in the US for so long. I know just how he feels, because this place really does seem to cease to exist (like a dream) when we are there...
