Happy day to all the #uloggers, after 1 week without ulogear today I share my #ulog 13 hope you have fun with this crazy story that has happened to me.

On my vacation trip I went with a friend to Madrid, it is the first time I visit that beautiful country, upon arrival we would stay in a nice hotel called "Marriot", while flying on the plane I imagined what that place would be like and what would be easy to get transportation that would move us to the hotel. It would be a perfect trip.

To my surprise when we arrived in Madrid, I was stupefied to see the large size of that airport, each terminal is like a city and they are all the same, I felt like an ant in the middle of so many people. I had no idea what was the entry and exit, my friend and I just followed the rest of the people who had boarded the same flight. We were able to pick up our bags and find the exit, but ... it was not so easy to get to the hotel. At the exit we asked some people where the place was to take the transport of the hotel, and nobody gave us an answer, We tried to leave the airport walking to take a taxi outside and we missed that airport is walled, people looked at us as if we were crazy, we found no way out and we went back to where we were. Then we wanted to call the hotel but we did not know how to manipulate that public telephone and only had a few coins, I looked for help in other people but nobody knew how to manipulate the public telephone, until I tried and managed to communicate with the hotel, which would soon send the transport.

They explained to us of an exclusive stop of the transports of the hotels but we walked and we walked and we did not find it, when returning us again it turns out that the stop had it in front and I did not notice, so much walking for nothing, I felt sorry for myself maybe I had hungry and I did not see that the stop was in my face.

At the end the transport picked us up many hours later but we were able to arrive and enjoy our trip. Things that happen that at the moment cause stress and anguish but then we laugh at having lived them, and for the next visit it will be easy to move around in that airport.
