More of the Parque

From Paza de Espana we carried on into the Parque Maria Luisa. A group of noisy schoolkids had the same idea, but were diverted by their teacher down a small avenue We seemed to have the place to ourselves again.

Everywhere you looked there were quite areas to sit and enjoy the surroundings - and of course the shade to protect you from the fierce sun.

Towards the southern end of the Parque was the Museo de Artes y Costmbres Populares. Another superb building at the end of a long avenu of trees. Walking round the building the whole area opens up between the Museo and the Museo Arqueologico with a quiet reflecting pond between then.

A few locals were making the most of the benches to sit and chat, to eat some late morning pastries, or to canoodle. (Though not all three at once).

The Gorse Fox and Silver Vixen were quite taken with this part of the Parque and lingered for a while before setting out on an the next stage of the tour that we had selected from the guide book.
