May Day! May Day!

On Saturday, our peaceful morning was filled with the discordant sounds of shouting, drums, and a few out of tune brass instruments. We headed out for the market and found the source. This parade of labor unions.We spotted signs for the two big unions here UGT and CCOO and finally realized that they were out because of the date, May 1st (like Labor Day for the rest of the world).
Luckily, we did most of our shopping at the outdoor market. When we headed out later to pick up a few things from the grocery store, the full realization of the day hit us. It's a holiday. Not just a marching day, but a "I hope you already have everything you need for the weekend because it will be closed today and tomorrow's a Sunday" day.

Love, fishes, and robots!
