We found the metro very cheap and easy to use. I thought it was one of the most user-friendly systems I’ve seen, mainly because you could share a T10 card. We didn't use the metro a lot as we were staying in the Gothic Quarter and most sights were within walking distance. However, it was very handy for getting to Parc Guell which is a bit out of the city and also to Sagrada Familia. TICKET TIPS: i) Buying the T10 ticket is much cheaper than individual tickets and is valid for 10 rides. Each ride works out at just over €1 which is pretty much half the cost of an individual ticket. It is cheaper than the buses. We bought the T10 on our first day and even though we didn't use it all up, it was worth it. ii) Cost aside, the T10 is very convenient because you don’t have to keep buying tickets each time you travel. iii) The best thing about the T10 ticket is that you can share it with a friend. So for the two of us, we only bought one card and we could both use it even though we were travelling together. A lot of public transport cards don't allow you to share a card so this was a real bonus. iv) When you swipe your ticket at the turnstile, that starts one ‘ride’. You then have 1hr 25 min of travel. Even if you transfer trains as long as its inside this time period, it only counts as the one ride. You still have to validate the ticket but it will be counted as part of the same ride. iv) The ticket machine was simple to use once we figured out that we could change the language to English v) We also used the metro on our last day to travel from the Gothic Quarter to Barcelona Sants station for the train to Madrid. It was reasonably straightforward. Mostly there were lifts for our bags but there were a couple of occasions where we had carry the bags up a short flight of stairs.

If you are a tourist this is one of a fun way to get to the Temple of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the amusement park. The Funicular is part of the tube/underground 1 ticket cost (not an additional expense).

We took Frecciarossa from Rome to Florence, Florence to Venice and Venice to Rome. We were in what is called "Executive Class" and it was very comfortable. The food choice is a bit over hyped, but the service was attentive. We were early to our train in Florence, so we hung out in their lounge area. There were free drinks and ice cream available which was nice. The accommodations in the lounge were average for these type of lounges.

Many people will think that Tiburtina station is cold and deserted, etc., but actually it has lot to offer and connects to many things you can do or shop at... The one place you can have fun and shop is called Panorama. If you take the Metro and get of at Tiburtina station, getting out and going to Panorama. If you have kids, this is a great place. In this Panorama, Via Tiburtina, 757, there is a kids attraction park called Jungle Park. It is wonderful, awesome to have kids play while you shop or just have fun. My daughter loved it! She was bouncing all of the place. It is not costly, very cheap and affordable. Plus you have Panorama right there so when you are done you can relax while your kids play at this park. I highly recommend this place, also the station and enjoy panorama (don't forget to buy the Tiramisu which is great at this place)> Enjoy exploring Rome!
