Bienvenue et Au Revoir en France - Travel Itinerary Day Two - Seoul, Paris, Madrid - yes, all in one day! Crazeeeeeeee!


After a day in Seoul, we head off to Paris, another 10 hours in the air eating delicious Korean food and getting spoiled by the lovely crew. We arrive at Charles de Gaulle airport in the early evening, then after fiddling around for a couple of hours, admiring the new imporved CDG airport facilites and shops, we grab our flight to Madrid. We should have found our way into mid-city Madrid by midnight, just in time for dinner! Hm, bring on the tapas!

Plaza de Espana, Madrid



San Isidro, Madrid



Bring on the tapas!

After 24-ish hours in the air (with one good sleep) we'll be a bit vague. We've done this ridiculous flight hop-around before, arriving in Dublin Ireland and asking someone what country we were in, mwhhhhhhaaaa!

Have you been to Madrid? Any advice on where to go, what to see in a couple of days before we head to San Sebastian?

You are going to be exhausted on arrival! I have been to Alicante only in Spain so sorry no help with Madrid. Have a fantastic holiday. Diane

Suze: Thanks. It's great isn't it?

Diane: Yep, I know. Jet lagged and roaming.

Love the picture of the Plaza de Espana. The flight sounds great, too, especially as compared to American flights. Good luck with your travels and enjoy!
