Today I woke up to unusually happy parents, today was their day for sure. Mom and dad had planned the whole day. From morning to evening. So today we were going to rent 4 bikes and explore Madrid “Yeeey”:’( I would much rather enjoy the great weather in a sunchair but yup, Bike Trip it was. We rented our bikes at Rutas Pangera. They had like a hundred different bikes. So my mom and i choosed what we in Sweden call in a ladies’ bike. My Dad and brother chose mountain bikes. It actually turned out to be quite fun. We were riding our bikes around Madrid and watched cool buildings and statues. We saw the Cibeles Fountaine at Plaza De Cibeles. The fountain is one of Madrid’s most important symbols. We also saw the Temple of Debod, Which is a temple Madrid got as a gift from Egypt 1968 when Madrid helped Egypt save one of their temple’s.
At Lunchtime we rode to Puerta De Sol. Puerta De Sol is one of the most famous places in Madrid, and It’s very busy. We found a lunch restaurant near by so we decided to eat lunch there. The restaurant was called Casa Labra and as you can hear by the name it was a Spanish restaurant. The food was okay, not the greatest but it was okay. I eat a Paella with seafood. After lunch we rode back to Rutas Pangera (the renting store) to return our bikes. We realized then that we had plenty of time over, so we went to a well known ice cream bar to buy some ice cream. The name of the bar was Mistura, I did not regret going there that’s for sure. It was probably one of the greatest ice creams I’ve ever have had.
We went back to the hotel to fresh up before the restaurant. The restaurant’s name was Dstage. Dstage is a pretty exclusive restaurant in Madrid. It is ranked number 22 of all 10 869 restaurants in Madrid. The restaurant was different from the others we had been at in Madrid. The design of everything was so special. The food was different, the plates were different, everything was different. In this case, I would say that different is good. After the restaurant, we went back to the hotel and finished the day watching some TV together. To summarise the day I would say that you shouldn’t be so prejudging. That you shouldn’t expect so much from something before it happens.
