This wks Fiesta

[sterling]

Hi,
Can anybody tell me if the up and coming fiesta means that everywhere will be closed for the duration, which I think is Friday till Tuesday. I know the Mercadona will close on Saturaday afternoon will the local restaurants be closed too? I am flying over on Saturaday and leaving on Tuesday and I feel it will be a very quiet and lean visit if everything is closed ;)

Saturday 1st of November is a National Holiday in Spain (all Saints). Mercadona's in other places are closed. Mercadona in Albox is open in the morning because it is closed on Monday 3rd. I think this is indeed because of the fiesta in Albox. I have not seen yet that other shops are closed on Monday. But restaurants and bars will be open because this is essential for the fiesta. Some might be closed on the national holiday 1st of November.
