First weekend it hasn't rained this year. Went out in the van to see the state of the reservoirs.

Fair few litres flowing here

Forgot the location - It's El pontón de Olivia, Madrid, well it's on the border of Communidad de Madrid and Castille La Mancha

I'm gonna be in Madrid for a weekend at the end of the month for the first time. Any suggestions on things we should not miss, or cool spots that we should check out?

I can definitely try and help, it's best if you tell me what you're into and what area you're staying in. Dietary requirements etc

[–] ButtDrugs@lemmy.zip 1 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

No dietary restrictions, we love good food and wine, we'll be on our honeymoon and Madrid is one of the stops 😀. We're staying just off Gran Via. We love diving into local culture and finding hidden gems, from fancy to divey. We're big walkers and typically spend time getting lost in new cities to see what we can find.

Appreciate any insight!

Hell yeah thank you.

If you're big walkers, we just did a nice walk near Patones.

You'll need a car though

For walks in the actual city itself there's always Casa De Campo, you can access that by either Lago, Batan or Casa De Campo metro stops
