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.
