    A day in Madrid

    I am starting the Camino Francis in August, flying into Madrid. I'm arriving at 7:30 am, then have until 4:20 pm to fly to Pamplona. (I was originally scheduled to fly out at 11:30 am but my flight time got changed). Would I have time to go into Madrid, if even for lunch?

There's a train to Leon leaving from Chamartin at 11:05am, the next one is 14:40 so a long wait involved and hoping to get the earlier one. Is this too ambitious?
