For me to get to class I need to walk about 10 minutes to get to the Metro, ride it for about 10 minutes and then finish up with a 15 minute walk.
The walk from the hotel to and from the Metro includes a walk through a lovely park. It is considered an art park and has sculptures in addition to ponds, water features and flowers. There are also some animals including 3 black swans, a family of ducks and some random cats.
So in such a large, crazy big city I am very fortunate that this is part of my day!
