Lucy's Travels
We went to visit the Real Madrid stadium today, as you can see from my photos. We went on a tour at a great price of 9 euros - about 6GBP. We got to see the pitch from the top of the stadium and at the bottom, the players benches and coaches area, the locker room for visitors and also the museum and commentators box. I also managed to touch the pitch although I didn't realise until after that it was forbidden!!
I would definitely recommend doing this if you ever come to Madrid, even if you are not into football it is worthwhile.
We are staying in Puerto del Sol so we got a metro up to Santiago Barnabeu, we managed to get on the wrong one but quickly changed direction and arrived in about an hour - The return journey home took 10 minutes!! The metro is really good out here as it is only 1euro a ticket - Not even a pound! It's also really easy to use as the metro's arrive in numerical order...We only realised this after 8 trains passed!!
The city over where the stadium is is a lot different to where we are staying in the centre, it is the business capital so lots of tall buildings and more open spaces.
Off to Barcelona today so looking at cheap travel and accommodation...Cant wait to sunbathe!!
