spanish word for , afternoon nap, this is in deed a natioanal costum and a real instituiton throu out spain. following lunch, 90% of spanish people go to bed and have a siesta . and they start up things again from 5 p.m. i´ve tried one day siesta time and it was okey i guess... but i think i couldn t not grown acostumed to it...lot of time we lost tryin to sleep...and time is precious.
