Back when Ryan and I started talking about visiting Spain, we never even considered going without also stopping in to visit Madrid - where I studied abroad for three months. Best three months ever. So after we visited Paris together, we flew down and spent two nights in Madrid. It was great being able to show Ryan my favorite spots, eat lunch with my host mom, Pilar, spend time with a mission friend of Ryan's who is now serving in Madrid, and best of all, attend a session in the Madrid temple - the most beautiful temple in the world! :)
