Joe and I arrived in Madrid this morning around 7:30 AM. We had a great flight. Not too crowded. Not too many ‘sickies.’
To catch a bus to Zafra you need to get yourself to Estación de Autobuses SUR. I had forgotten and left my notes at home, and so we went to the bus station on Aveneda de Americas instead. Oops. . . and then had to take the Metro to SUR.
There is also a train that goes from the airport to Atocha Stayion, and then to Zafra, but it was €44 each and we are on a budget.
We bought tickets for 22 euros on Avanza bus. The bus leaves here at 11:30. I believe there are a few other buses through the day.
We are weary and ready to sleep but still have a 5 hour bus trip. I think if I were to do this again I would spend one night here in Madrid and take the bus the next day to Zafra. Joe is saying we also should go first class next time from home. Ha ha Ha! Yeah. In my dreams.
We did see one very sick woman in the airport but other than that it seems to be business as usual. The weather was chilly when we got off the plane, but it was early morning. And I’m sure it will be probably much warmer when we get down south.
