The guys with roosters on their pants were out in full force today, driving the crowd at Plaza de Sol crazy. Music and Madrid seem to go together. We also tried to get tickets to the opera which is performing Idomeneo by Mozart this week. We were not so lucky. It is almost sold out except for a few seats with blocked views. And only single seats at a very high price. So disappointing. Plaza de Sol was also the scene of guy dressed as a penguin and Micky Mouse. Always a circus there.
To assuage our disappointment about the Opera we hit a cute tapas bar around the corner. These yummy tostadas - one with salmon and one with clams and shrimp got us through the afternoon.
