ANOTHER
DAY OFF - MARCH 19 DÍA DE SAN
JOSÉ
March 19 is a date to honour
San José (St. Joseph), the husband of
the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, and consequently
it is known as Día del Padre - Father's Day
- across many parts of Spain. In Valencia, the day
is also Fallas de San José, the final
day of one of the most famous festivals in Spain,
and it is a public holiday in the Comunidad Valenciana
as well as the Pais Vasco, Galicia, Murcia and Navarra.
Many people attend special masses to honour the life
of San José and take their fathers out for a
special lunch in a restaurant and give them gifts.
