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
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!
Like me hitting the pissoir first thing at work after drinking coffee and monster during the commute.
Not been able to go on my chosen walking path for about a week and a half now because the path is just more river. It's not raining much, but it just never seems to stop...
thats at least a pocketful of water. maybe a couple pocketfuls.
How many otter's pockets?
at least chwenty
I'm in Portugal. Very relatable. It's also sunny here for the first time in forever!
Youse have it really bad! Hope everything is ok

So Sunday it will be?

I think you and I have different definitions of "pics" but holy hell that's a lot of water.
There is an option to post videos to a pics community so I thought why the fuck not?
I'll include a pic with this message just for you though 
Both are awesome!
I mean technically this is just a long series of pics :P
Where though?
I've updated, bout an hour from Madrid
Me, who went to the Lozärner Fasnacht:
You're Welcome
Send some my way. I've had a new raft since Dec and the water levels I need to be above 1.5m haven't been above 0.7m.
La mitá de la población esta noche
