We had a great time checking out the Museum of Illusions Madrid!! It was a nice break from the heat. I didn’t know what to expect but I was very happy with what I discovered. The offer teacher discount. I just had to show my work email. Robert and Ines, thank you for your kindness. Money and time well spent!!
