Going to Madrid a day early, about a 4 hour train ride and only €10 extra for first class; I need me that extra leg room!

Spent the morning chilling with some folks in the hostel, talking about travel plans and the Camino pilgrimage routes. Then went down to the maritime museum, everything else is closed pretty much. There’s been a lot of public holidays wherever I go, looks like the UK is pretty short on those too ?

4 hours later, Sungate One hostel in Madrid

The train ride was pretty nice, watched the first few episodes of Rings of Power and had a couple of drinks.

Tapas with the hostel folks then a few drinks in an Irish bar, I opted not to hit the club today! Sungate One hostel is really cool.
