Biking through El Retiro
We spent a weekend in Madrid, what a beautiful city! We had a great time visiting many plazas, eating, shopping, strolling down its streets which are filled of history, and so much more.
We had a bike tour to and through Parque El Retiro. I hadn't ridden a bike in a long time, it was kind of a challenge for me, especially going up the last hill. The kids in my group, on the other hand, did a great job! They were also so sweet to me, making sure I was fine. We did a few activities as part of a competition against two other groups and mine won! Congratulations!!! I'm so proud of you!
