Some news

Hello guys, we hope you are all doing okay. Just thought we’d report that if you are a Madrid lover, then you better head of to the cinemas nowadays. In the film “The Cold Light of Day” you can meet Bruce Willis and some others in an action film recorded in Madrid, so it is a highlight, just to get to see the city we all love. The film in itself was also quite nice, but the best was of course when you see the El Retiro Park, the Plaza Mayor, Plaza de Cibeles and so on. So, do not miss out on this one.

By the way, the summer is coming to Madrid at the moment, so do not forget your sun milk, if not, you might get burned!
