December 6 is the Día de la Constitución and December 8 is the Inmaculada Concepción in Spain. All you need to know is that there was no work yesterday or today. Somehow I was able to go grocery shopping yesterday, but today literally reminded me of Memorial Day weekend in New York City. There was no one around and everything was closed. So pretty much your standard Spanish Sunday. I did for some reason think that I would still have to give private English lessons. After I walked 45minutes to my student's flat only to be told over the intercom that we were in fact NOT meeting today I felt sort of defeated and that I am not as immersed as I thought. How could I think someone would want tutoring on a holiday?!Tuesday, December 8, 2009
