Are you coming to DC, or going to Copenhagen? (I may have mistakenly assumed the later)

Man, I thought he meant Copenhagen, maybe you are right and he's coming to DC.

Yeah I live here. Sorry if that was confusing, and thank you for the CPH recs for next week

The restaurant Kuche. One of the best meals I've ever had.

I say this with all seriousness....

Its the last Friday before Christmas, not possible to take a few hours off that afternoon?

I'll try!

Plaza del Sol if you want the touristy experiene.
Plaza de las Ventas if you want the authentic experience.

Try San Ines for the best churros in town.

Not an expert for Madrid but in case you happen to be in the area, I can definitely recommend these 2 for typical Madrid food:

Casa Carola · Madrid, Madrid

i thought you were closing out with a linen suit?!?!?

Had to cancel as the fabric I chose wasn't available. Picked up a nice PRL white linen sport coat instead to fill that gap. Based on current politics I'm not sure I can make it three full years to official retirement. Might have to punch early at reduced pension if it gets too ugly.

I think my suit buying days are over and I have enough to get me through! This is just an impulse want. Kinda neat, though.
