Madrid

All photos

Maybe it was because my ex-girlfriend came from Barcelona.
That my image of the city was rather dark.
I was to be proven wrong.

I arrived at the Ciudad very early on monday.
With as a first priority naturally the stadium.
Where Ajax played two of its best games in history.
That november day in 1995, i will never
forget

But work had to be done.
An expert meeting,
At
Cedex, the Spanish experimentation center for public works.
It lay near Atocha. On a hill

Atocha station might just be the most beautiful place in the world
With its interior garden, built as the old hall was obsolete,
after the building of the new TGV-station.
And what happend in March 04
Makes the garden erven more important

Night life in Madrid is something famous.
And even though we only got to experience a tiny bit.
It tastes deliciously.

But we cannot leave,
Without saying something about the second largest metro in Europe.
Efficient and all the time growing and growing.
Why does one simple line in Amsterdam take that long
