Madrid - San Isidro
May 13th, 2005 Posted in Spain, DestinationsIf you were studying Spanish in Madrid, you would now be looking forward to a weekend of “fiestas”. Sunday is the day of San Isidro, the patron saint of Madrid. San Isidro was a type of farmer - Madrid has changed a lot since those days!
This weekend will see fairs, dancing, bullfights, concerts…. In general all kinds of fun activities!
I myself shall be going to the Saint’s shrine on Sunday to have a drink of his water. It’s supposed to bring good luck. They say a sip is enough, but I think I’ll have more than that, just in case! And then I’ll buy a lottery ticket. If this blog suddenly stops being updated, you’ll know the water worked!
If you’d like to take part next year, start booking your Spanish course now!
