With the exception of a couple rainy days, the weather here during the last three weeks has been flawless — highs in the 70s, lows in the 50s, with clear air and refreshing breezes. Perfect for more urban adventures!
Here is a compilation of Ray´s two most recent outings. Same general direction to Casa de Campo, but different routes to get there.
One fun twist last Sunday was taking the Teleférico for 1 1/2 miles of the journey. This is a cable car that whisks you from Parque del Oeste, glides smoothly over the Río Manzanares and the M-30 highway, and deposits you smack in the middle of Casa de Campo. Great views from 150 feet or so in the air.
