Madrid y Toledo

Herman and I have traveled halfway across the world from Denver to Toronto to Madrid. Altogether a 17 hour trip but, we made it to Madrid in one peice. We even made a few friends along the way, Klara and Bea. Klara was headed back home to Sweden, and Bea was headed back home to Majadahonda, a city just outside of Madrid. In Madrid, we also met 27 people who are in the same study abroad program.


Anyways without further ado... Where's Herman?
Here's a hint:
This is a random wall of the side of the road near the hotel in Madrid 15 minutes by foot from the main city center... It was perfect! Well known places that I went to are: Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol and Museo del Prado - to name a few.


Toledo: I liked Toledo much more than Madrid because it was like an old timey movie rather than a metropolitan city. This is a sign near the ciy center of Toledo. Can you find Herman?
Here's a hint:
I found some other places to hide him that might be easier to see as well:


This is inside the Museo Sefaradi, an old mosque turned into a synagogue, turned into a museum. The most famous painting of the artist, El Greco is still there to this day.








 The last picture I have with Herman in it is in El Monesterio de San Juan de los Reyes - built 500 or so years ago:




I hope you enjoyed finding Herman in Madrid and Toledo! Next week: Scenes from Bilbao!
