Our Trip to Madrid with 4 Kids

During the final days of Advent, our family made a pilgrimage to Spain to see St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross.  We flew in and out of Madrid - and had some fun in the city while we were there!  (Brian had been to Madrid 8 years earlier, and prayed for us there!)  Here are some of family trip highlights:

Clare's second flight - Vienna to Madrid!









The Prado Museum





The kids' first time eating at Five Guys





Carousel Ride







Christmas Markets in Plaza Mayor - Brian purchasing the "Pooping Shepherd" for our Nativity Scene







Royal Palace of Madrid









Chocolate Con Churros from San Gines











Christmas Lights in the City Center (in the rain)















The Madrid Amusement Park - Parque de Atracciones

























We flew back to Vienna from Madrid on Christmas Eve Day... Feliz Navidad!
