No Terminal window in Ubuntu

Hi,
I downloaded the latest version of Ubuntu, and I was trying to get to a
terminal window for some CLI work, and I cannot get one.
I tried alt + F2 and typing sudo terminal, or just terminal.
I also tried control + alt + all the numbers, and I cannot get a terminal
window that way either.
Is this a bug, or a bad download, or by design?
Thanks.
Glenn
