Post 3 (11/6/25) FANCY FRENCH DINNER:

My research led me to a French Michelin restaurant called Allegorie, and it couldn't have been better! Our server Marie was a total doll, and super professional, plus the food was spectacular!! Have a look for yourself:

COLD LOBSTER APPETIZER


HOT LOBSTER APPETIZER


TURBOT FISH


BLUEBERRY TART (with lemon verbena like in my garden (and never seen anywhere else!)


Mignardises sooooo good: mini cream puff, merengue pavlova with lemon curd, and chocolate with peanut butter crisp:


And my honest reaction:

    A splendid evening in Madrid—the exquisite cuisine, the exceptionally attentive Marie, whose presence made it truly unforgettable, and our lively, engaging conversations. It was an extraordinary experience.

Post 2 (11/5/25)  RONALD SHOWS UP, FUN ENSUES... Bill's nephew Ronald came from northern Germany to spend a couple days with me in Madrid and to pick up a few of Bill's things that I brought for him and his wife Katharina. He helped me shoot a BUNCH of music videos all over Madrid! Stay tuned for those... Found some major blue walls in the metro!

Here are some videos and photo from the SFO experience and boarding the flight to Zurich (for my connection to Madrid). The food was really good in the lounge! Gotta make my way over to the gate. But on the way out of the lounge: And on my way to the gate: And as far as on the plane: My transfer in Zurich was kind of fun and wild! Haha Then I arrived at Hotel Montera Madrid, which is a really cool place to stay; especially the staff are super cool!! I was only here 5 minutes to drop off my stuff and freshen up, t...
