Rafael and Jill took us for a drive to El Escorial which is 50kms to the north of Madrid
at the edge of the high mountains.It is famous for the Monastry which dominates the
small town.It is the old seat of the Spanish Kings who are buried there ,past and present.
The beautiful town of cobbled streets leads to the heart of this historic building with it's
magnificent gardens overlooking the view to Madrid.Not far away is the burial site of
Franco.We had tortilla in the town for lunch and picked up spit roasted chicken for dinner!
