I was in Madrid today, on a quick combined business/personal trip. Thanks to
the high speed train which covers the 430 km between Alicante and Madrid in
just over 2 hours, it is easy to just go in the morning and come back in the
afternoon. I had a bit of time to walk around as well. In and around Plaza de
Colón (Columbus Square), one of the main squares in the centre of Madrid, the
ministry of agriculture and the olive farmers association had set up several
stands offering olive oil samples. Olive oil is serious business in Spain:

As you can see, it was a cold sunny day in Madrid today, with temperatures in
the mid 50s F.
Cheers,
