Travelogue
Spent two or three hours yesterday at the Museo Arceológico Nacional, which (like the Museum of London) is organized chronologically. We skipped quickly through the pre-Homo-sapiens stuff, since it's not particularly Spain-specific, but there's a surprising amount known about Neolithic, Chalcolithic, and Bronze Age life in the Iberian peninsula... anyway, we almost got to the arrival of the Romans, with all of the Roman, Visigothic, and Mozarabic periods yet to go. But we had a 2:00 entry time reserved at the Prado, so we left to make that appointment.
Spent six hours at the Prado, getting as far as Bosch, Bruegel, El Greco, Dürer, and friends. (And ran into Mac, of "Mac and Marianne", with some armor-geek buddies.) Had supper at a Chinese noodle place. Bought train tickets for upcoming trips to Segovia, Toledo, and Granada. Went to bed. Up early to catch subway to train to Segovia.
