Another Fiesta! and counting.

Yes. Another one. This time is not just for our town but for the whole of Catalunya and there's Catalan flags all over the place.
(The Catalan flag is different from the Spanish one and in the local council you can find up to 4 flags in any Fiesta day: the blue one with golden stars for the European union, the one for Spain, the regional one in our case Catalunya and the old one for the town or city).
The fiesta today is to remember when Catalunya lost the decisive battle against Spain and was annexed to the biggest kingdom. This being a Mediterranean country, the day, even though is a sad one in theory, is marked with a fiesta. Some streets are closed, everybody has a day off work (except for the bars and cafes, of course) and as soon as is dark enough there's music in some squares and fireworks at 11pm.

Nice, of course. But schools are starting today all over Spain and here they'll open tomorrow and we still don't know if we'd be able to find one for my son. I'm quite worried and hardly appreciate the festive occasion. Of course, nobody from the Ministry of Education is working today so I expect no calls, but school start tomorow nonetheless and we have no place for P.
