During a layover in Madrid, I decided to take my suitcase with me
on a quick walking tour of the city. I successfully boarded the right
train going in the direction of the city center, but when I got off the
train, I couldn't find an exit anywhere. The only signs I could see had
an arrow and "Salidas." Muttering to myself, I said, "I don't want to go
to Salidas! I want to get out of here!" Only after quite a bit
of wandering did I realize that "Salidas" means "exits."

There's Only One Way Out of Salidas
