After breakfast the group departed for a stadium tour of the Bernabeu. Redlands would be able to compare two of the best stadia in the world. How does the Bernabeu compare to the Nou Camp guys?
The tour starts right at the top of the stadium!
The ultra violet lighting on the pitch helps the grass grow. There are major preparations going on for the much anticipated fixture on Saturday 10th,
Real Madrid vs. FC Barcelona!
Dean checks out some of the many trophies this club has won over their history.
Graham is over the moon to learn one of his fellow countrymen played for Real Madrid!
Harry and Jarod with the European Cups!
Mourinho turns to his bench to see what options he has in the dying minutes of the game...... He decides to go with Lizzie......
Some of the boys get close to the pitch.
A press conference with the Redlands boys!
After the Bernabeu Tour, the group travelled back into the city for lunch in Opera square and then a visit to the Royal Palace and Gran Via shopping street.
The boys are able to get up close to the home of the King of Spain.
Unbelievable architecture that many of the parents enjoyed!
In the middle of the city in a busy shopping district, crowds gather to see what appeared to be a woman standing motionless on the edge of the building!
It turns out they were filming part of a film! The woman then disappeared and reappeared with others to wave to the crowd!!!
As was the popularity of the Australian boys being in Madrid (and also the amount of money they collectively spent in the VANS shop!) the manager of the shop wanted a picture of their happy customers!
At 6:00pm at night, the streets are packed with people Christmas shopping!
