There's a local saying in Madrid: 'Nine months of winter and three months of hell.' But don't be fooled! This exhilarating city offers dazzling skies and more sun than anywhere else in Europe. In Mexico City the locals often complain about pollution. This is now the largest city in the world, with vast numbers of vehicles and industries pouring out noxious fumes. In Rio de Janeiro the most popular drink to order is a caipirinha, a tasty cocktail. The health-conscious may prefer a vitamina, a delicious fruit milkshake. In San Francisco there is lots to do. If you aren't into theatre, opera, art shows, shopping, or Asian cuisine you can head out of the city. Driving south, you'll see stretches of spectacular Pacific coastline. Tokyo is a happening place. Fashion is chic black, with the 'little girl' look everywhere among young women and futurism for the guys.
