A Few Days in Madrid, May 28 - 31, 2022

I always enjoy wondering, exploring, and watching people.  One place I found was the Church of Scientology of Spain.


Retiro Park and other green spaces in Madrid are in peak condition - any flower lover would be in heaven.





 

After meeting a friend for coffee, I explored the Crystal Palace in Retiro Park.  They always have some artwork on display and the entry is free.  A modern artist who made this display of cardboard and tape - neither it nor the one statue made much sense to me.





 

The 81st International Book Fair was inside Retiro Park.  Fundacion AXA had a big display about climate change and what we need to protect.


The book fair had more than 300 vendors set up covering a large part of the east side of the park.



This list had more than 300 vendors

Because of the large crowds attending the book fair, they had brought in extra portable toilets.  They had this advertisement for Renova, The Sexiest Paper on Earth - what a way to sell toilet paper!
