We dropped off our suitcases - filled our bottles of water (yes we are cheap) and went to find something Spain like to eat. We had the most problem finding food in general - most restaurants post a menu outside of the door with prices, most are in Spanish of course, but since the euro is worth about $1.50 we were trying to be careful since we had 2 full weeks of eating to do. But finding somewhere everyone wants and deciphering the menu was at times very time consuming. This restaurant was nice, the waiter was patient, there are two prices one for inside the restaurant, and one for on the patio, we ate inside and enjoyed it. Mom and Dad ordered chicken - how can you go wrong with chicken? It was really good but it was literally 1/2 of a chicken.
Our first foray into the Metro - what a way to travel!! I became the navigator and off we went to find the Prado. I have never been on a subway and I found it to be very convenient and easy way to get around. The Metro was clean and felt very safe, we never waited more than a few minutes for a train. We got off and came up the stairs and these buildings were just so beautiful.
