Getting Lost in the City

Last weekend, Daniel travelled to Madrid for a short holiday. On Sunday morning, he decided to visit the Prado Museum. He left his hotel near the train station and tried to walk there, but soon he realized he was going in the wrong direction.

Daniel stopped a police officer and asked politely:
Daniel: “Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to the Prado Museum, please?”
Police officer: “Yes, of course. Go straight down this avenue until you reach the roundabout. Take the second exit to your right. Continue walking for about ten minutes. You will pass a park and a large theatre. The museum will be on your left.”

Daniel thanked him and started walking. However, at the roundabout he felt unsure because there were many exits. He asked a young woman with a map in her hands:
Daniel: “Sorry to bother you, but is this the way to the Prado Museum?”
Woman: “Almost. If you take the second exit, as the officer said, you’ll find the museum. But if you want a faster route, cross the park directly, go past the fountain, and you’ll arrive at the main entrance.”

Finally, Daniel reached the museum without problems. He learned that asking more than one person can sometimes give you extra information and even a shorter way.
