Im headed over for a few weeks on Friday, and looking for any insider info on where to go, what to do. Anyone?

head to Andaluzia then.
Cordoba, Granada [Alhambra, the heritage of the Nazarí dinasty is one of the most beautiful things these eyes of mine have ever seen], Carmona, Sevilha...bemvindo.

Love to stop in and see ya versa, hope alls well there - maybe we do a new zeland snowboard trip this next summer(or you make good on your LA trip ;))...
Actually headed down to Rota for a few days over Christmas to visit mom. Hows that area unfit? Know good nightlife in Madrid?

don't worry mr. flaco, all of madrid downtown is a party area, people stay out on the street all night, lots of flaminco discos, hand clapping, dancing, 24 hour pharmacies galore. it's very much a city lifestyle, and i hope you love pork!

Find the Loreak Median store and buy some wicked clothes. The party will find you anywhere you go!

don't worry, be a true latino: late, late dinner and at 2am the night's still a child.

sorry, it's Loreak Mendian

it's all about the prado. but if you have time you can go to toledo and check out the el greco.
unless... anyone know if the conde de orgaz is still on tour?
grenada + ronda are also relatively close and a good bet if you don't mind travelling a bit.

I'm gonna be near Ronda, in Gaucin, for xmas and ny but I'd say that's a bit of a schlep from Madrid if time is tight (about 600kms?)

Thanks guys - Im staying downtown while in Madrid, so seems like Im in the right place.
I'm sooooo looking forward to this.
