When I was in Madrid 2 years ago, they had an
exhibition of Burial Clothes at the Palacio Real
which I caught by the skin of my teeth - a day
later and I would have missed it! Unfortunately
we will only be in Madrid for 4 days - a
celebration of finally getting our son wed and
off our hands - so we won't have time to go
visiting. But I will mark these for future
reference - we plan to tour Northern Spain one day.
