Emerging from the incredibly efficient world of the Madrid underground, we gazed upon snowflakes, the size of a one euro coin, drifting lazily down from the sky, melting quickly on the pavement. Our walk from the subway station to the Prado museum felt more like one of the Dali paintings found in Madrid's other great museo - the Reina Sofia. Tracing the fence line that encloses the Botanical Gardens that lead to the entrance of the Prado, these snowflakes captured our attention, and transformed a cold, wet morning into our most memorable minutes from our weekend trip to Spain. Snow in Madrid - que loco, pero que hermosa! Kate and I both took several minutes, protected by the entrance's massive white columns, to marvel at the thousand falling stars of snow.
