>(Spanish siesta is at 4PM)

That's ridiculous.

As a 40 year old Spaniard, I have never heard of this 4 PM siesta time.

32 yo here. People think, wrongly, all of Spain is like Andalucia with Flamenco and Sun everywhere.

Head to the North in the Atlantic, or better, I dare all of HN to head Burgos in Winter, you'll see how "sunny" will you feel.

Hint: it will chill-screw you all below 0 ºC.

It's funny how these thinking patterns repeat at all levels. I am from sunny Andalucia, and this flamenco and siesta stereotypes still sound like total rubbish.

They think Spain is under GMT, and not.

Dear Americans/Europeans: At 2PM we aren't under a siesta. We are just having lunch, that's why every shop is closed.
