Some shots from Madrid

After returning from Madrid, there has been very busy days at work. No time for blogging. So thank you all for still visiting me, thank you for all greetings and comments. I will try to catch up with your blogs soon ;-)

These two first pictures are from Real Jardin Botanico. A great botanic garden, a must-see when you are in Madrid.

I also tried to shot night shots, but without my tripod it is difficult to get clear pictures due to long exposure time. The first building is the Palacio de Communicaciones/City Hall. Build between 1905 and 1917 as the headquarters of the post office.

The second one is the Metropolis Building.

This is the Monumento Alfonso XII. You can find this monument in Parque de El Retiro/ The Retiro Park.

These birds are walking around in Jardines Del Campo Del Moro, or in the backyard of the Royal Palace. You should really visit this garden.

This last shot is the Puerta Del Alcala, Alcalas Gate. It is a monument in the Plaza de la Independencia/Independence Square.

Back from Madrid

We had 5 great days in Madrid. It is a wonderful city with an exciting history. And my camera did not lay down for long during this stay. Well actually, for a couple of hours on Friday 8 of May it did.

That day I got married to Marit. It took place at the Norwegian Embassy. No big party, only the two of us. Just the way we wanted it to be. Perfect!

These two photos are not of our new home, but the Royal Palace in Madrid.
