Atocha, Madrid.
Rain Forest in the middle of Madrid?,
Atrium inside the Atocha Train Station, Madrid. Public transport in Spain is awesome, compared to the travesty here in US. It takes just 1 Euro to get to one end of Madrid from the other. I had a great time hopping from one place to the other by bus & renfe (train). Most of the major stations have info booths working round the clock. But communication was tad bit of a problem, esp when I was armed with nothing more than 'por favor', 'si', 'no', 'hablo englis?', 'solamente vegeteriano'. But that's when gestures come to help. Though it might look awkward, as long as it gets the message across, travelling in a strange land speaking a strange language is never a problem.
