Thanks to those who came to my rescue, but I feel bad about sort of hijacking Blanca's wonderful post.

Wow, you guys sound feisty today!

Blanca, I am guessing you are not on a Mac... so for (most?) PCs to make the ñ you simply press the Alt key with one finger and punch the three numbers 1,6,4 and poof you get an ñ! Another shortcut is Alt + 0241 to get ñ. Capital Ñ is Alt + 165 or Alt +0209 Ñ

Here are most of the Spanish letters you may want to use:
á Alt+160
é Alt+130
í Alt+161
ó Alt+162
ú Alt+163
ñ Alt+164
Ñ Alt+165
ü Alt+129
Ü Alt+154
¿ Alt+168
¡ Alt+173


For temperature or GPS degrees: º Alt+0186

I was surprised to see that in Blanca's subway photo the graffiti looks just like that here in Ensenada.

Surprisingly, although we here in the US look to local gangs as the source of graffiti, fact is that is actually worse in many European cities. Rome is a real example of that. People travel to Rome to see the attractions such as the Colosseum, or the Trevi Fountain, but the entire city, and the surrounding suburbs are littered with graffitti.

durrelrobert - the subway photo from Valencia is not graffiti - that is advertising for something or other. the subways were spotless and easy to use. The boards tell you how many minutes to go to the next train which is great.
