My Metros

Sitting on the metro home last night, I realized that over the last 11 weeks many of the stops have taken on special meanings to me and each have memories to go along with them.

• Cruz Del Rayo = HOME, comida, Señora 
• Ibiza = Caitlin, Retiro and Gabana 
• Francos Rodriguez = Nebrija, studying, Spanish, learning 
• Gregorio Marañon = Intercontinental hotel where los padres stayed when they visited 
• Velasquez = The Citibank I visited far too many times 
• Avenida de America = the gateway to everywhere else
• Sol = turistas but also the meeting place 
• La Latina = good food, first night out 
• Bilbao = FUN - La Sureña, Cherokee, y Malaica 
• Banco de España = pretty things the first time I popped out of the metro, Cibeles 

I might not know any of the historical meanings behind the names, pero no me importa, mine I’ll cherish.
