Palacio Real de Madrid


This is the royal palace in Madrid. It's very big, and very impressive.

I took a wander round the city after spending the afternoon with Belen from Intermon Oxfam. She is a campaigner with the Make Trade Fair team in Madrid, and showed me round the offices and even took me out for a traditional Spanish lunch! Everyone at Intermon is very excited because they have just reached the landmark of 500,000 signatures in Spain for the Make Trade Fair petition. So today there is a big press conference with Coldplay and about 30 other Spanish artists/celebrities who have also been supporting the campaign. It is the first time I will have ever attended a press conference, so I'm really looking forward to it. More news later...
