Signs and School

I have a few more pictures for you today.  I hope to have a lot to share soon as tomorrow I get to go to Toledo (famous painting by El Greco) and Saturday I'm going to Segovia (acuaducts).  Sunday I'm going to el Rastro (huge open market on Sundays in Madrid).  I'm so excited about all of the adventures!

Last night was exciting as Spain won the semi-finals for the Euro-Cup.  The Euro-Cup is played every four years and the semi-finals determine who plays in the Euro-Cup.  So in American terms, "We're going to the SuperBowl!"  I could hear people cheering outside during the game.  They were also singing and chanting.  It was amazing.  Such spirit and nationality.  When we won, I could hear everyone cheering as well.  We went out on the balcony and could see people jumping and cheering outside at the nearby bar.

I forgot to update you on the great news.  I didn't get lost on the bus this time!  I decided to give it another go as I was able to make it back easily the day I got lost.  I figured it out and enjoy the bus more than the metro.  There's more room on the metro so you're not crowded.  But you're not on the bus for long and you can see more of the city and have more of a sense of direction.

I think that is all for now.  The pictures are below.  Thanks for reading!  :)

 Speed limit sign

 School crossing sign.  This cracks me up.  They look like they are running so they don't get hit by a car.  :)

 Metro in 200 meters

 This is a sign to remind people that the far right lane is for taxis, bikes, and buses only.  This helps keep the buses on schedule.
