Arriving Madrid

After getting off the plane, we changed money so that we could pay the balance of our Madrid accommodations in cash. We called the apartment manager to let her know we were on our way. Then we went to the Metro station from the T1-T2 terminal.

Took a couple of questions (by Jenny) to the info desk in the Metro, but figured out we needed to transfer twice to get to the Sol station. Trip took about 45-50 minutes.

The metro is very clean and spacious. Stations are a bit hit or miss about operating escalators, but not a hassle at all to transfer. Tickets are 2E for any trip in the system. There is a discount if you buy a ten trip pass, but we couldn't quite figure that out on the vending machine.
