Evening Out in Madrid

We enlisted two vans to take us into Madrid for a little sightseeing and evening meal.  John Paul our assigned interpreter lined things up for us.  He took us to a typical Spanish grill and we enjoyed the atmosphere and food (well not all food was tried by some of the players!)

The whole group eating out!

Slicing off some meat.

Cold cuts

Croquettes

Spanish omelette

Lamb and fries
Also had chicken and fries
After the meal we walked a pedestrian street to Plaza del Sol which is the center of Madrid.

The walk to Plaza Del Sol


Modeling hats at a souvenir shop.

Town Hall at the center.

The boys with "silver man" on the plaza

And now with a pirate.



Cabs took us back to the hotel  because the vans were called back.  It was a great evening.  Thanks USA Basketball for this wonderful experience away from the hotel and gym.
