[edit] Suggestion/Question for Sleep Section
I swore I either saw it here on Wikitravel or maybe it was on Wikipedia, but I can't seem to find it.
Wherever I found it, I recall that there are these monasteries in Spain that are reasonably priced that allow you to spend the night in the monastery with some monks (a lot like Shukubō in Japan).
Anyone know what I'm talking about? If so, maybe it should be added. --220.127.116.11
i ve honestly no idea what you re talking about but what i do know is that the guide "lonelyplanet" gives a great overview over the "youth hostels" in barcelona... i wouldnt wonder if that would be true for all lonelyplanet guides. good book shops even have them in english language in spain!
I think you are talking about " Hospederias" like el Monasterio de Santo Domingo de Silos in Burgos

[edit] About Languages in Spain
I am a Spaniard myself, so that I would like to comment (before editing anything) about the languages on the "Spain" page. Spain has one official language in the whole country (Spanish), which is spoken and understood by (almost) all the population. There are also three other coofficial languages in their respective regions (Catalonia, Basque Country and Galicia), which are spoken by a moderate number of people (catalan is, by far, the most spoken one of the three, and roughly 70% of the population in Catalonia can speak and understand it). The article seems to imply that Spanish is only spoken by ca. 74% of the population, which is totally inaccurate, an a likely source of trouble for people wishing to visiy my country. Could someone please change it to reflect the real stand of things? Thanks Miguel
-- More about languages in Spain: I'm a galician myself, don't know if a spaniard, and I would like to say that Catalan is not the most spoken regional language in tems of percentage in Spain. Galician language is talked as primary language by 80% of the our population, specially in the country areas, but it has less social recognition than Catalan, for instance. In some cities, specially in la Coruña, it's quite strange to hear it in the city center, but in virtually every small town, Galician is the first language for daily communication.
I am a long-time traveler to Galicia and to Euskadi. One needs to be very careful with terms like "region" - which I have commented on in my editing. It is important indeed to recognize that within an autonomy, a language such as Galician is know and used by a majority of the population. At one point Galician was spoken by 90% of the people. Travelers who use th elanguage may get odd looks, but it also opens many doors. I know this from over 25 years of experience and research on the area. Respect for the local character is vital for getting the most out of travel. And yes, it is entirely possible that less than 3/4 of the population of Spain speaks Spanish - as a native langauge, it probably doesn't even reach that high. Many people still recall that Franco used to sign death sentences for people who were from one of the nationalities on the periphery of the country. Kathleen
Of the three recognized regional languages, galician is not the one in the most precarious state... that dubious honour would fall on basque.--22.214.171.124 13:22, 22 October 2006 (EDT)
- Well, now it is the turn for the Catalan, right? So I am a Catalan myself. I have ammended things such as the word Las before the word Islas because it does not belong to the name, like we don't say The United Kingdom but The UK. Also, I have to say that Catalan is spoken absolutely everywhere in Catalunya. The only regions you would not find that 100% of people speaks it is between, say, Salou and just after Barcelona in the coast. This is because it is the area with more tourisim and more immigration from in and out of Spain. If you are in the second town coast inside, this is like 10KM or so, you will have a hard time to find Spanish speaking people. Though, most of the people in Catalunya speak Spanish. I said most because there are a good percentage of people in Catalunya that speak Catalan period.
- I would like to add that the names of the comunities are sometimes only possible in the language of the comunity. For instance, Catalunya is the only way to write it. This happens as well with Illes Balears, Girona, A Coruña, Ourense, Lleida, Vitoria-Gasteiz and ALL the rest of the cities of Catalunya and Illes Balears. With the Basque County, the standard Basque name is suposed to be used. In València, most of them can be referred as using both the Catalan and the Spanish word. This is official, decided in the Parliament. Here[2] you have a guide (in Spanish).
- Also, I'd like to talk about the language of València. As a linguist I have to say that it is Catalan. As a human being that reads the news, I would say it is Valencià. The Statute of València says that Valencian is the language of València. They don't like it to be called a dialect of Catalan, so we should respect that. But, whatever it is called (I am fine if we say that the language of Catalunya is Valencià) we speak the same. Remember that "Catalan" per se does not exist, as all of us speak a dialect of a language that no one really speaks, i.e. we all speak either the variant of this town or this other place.
- Also, I'd like to say that I have changed some influence stuff. It was said that Catalan has influence of French. But this isn't true. The same influence Spanish has of Italian. All this languages are dialects of the same Latin language. Perhaps in the middle ages we could talk about an influence, but not now. They are closely related, yes, but not influencied. If I speak Catalan to a French they will understand me as much as an English speaking to a Dutch. Also, about Aranès, I changed it to say that it is closely related to Occitan (There is the same problem like Catalan and Valencian: Provençal, Occitan and Aranès are very related and some say it is the same language, especially the first two).
- Lastly I want to say, just as an addition, that in the Balearic Islands, most comonly, don't have this name of the language problem. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 18.104.22.168 (talk • contribs) 7 Feb 2007
[edit] The Spanish Provinces
Spain subdivides it's regions into provinces. At the moment, I would feel that these are too small for Wikitravel and the regions would normally be all we would need. The problem is that the provinces all tend to be named after their main town. eg Malaga (city), Malaga (province), Granada (city), Granada (province), leading to confusion and disabiguation pages for all these places. Should we avoid creating the province article where possible??? -- DanielC 10:29, 4 Jun 2005 (EDT)
[edit] Renfe, fastest connection
i would add it myself but i cant express properly what i mean so i ll just give you an example:
If you wanna go from Barcelona to Salmanca (a town between madrid and portugal) the RENFE Homepage and the personal at the trainstation will only give you the DIRECT connection between Salamanca and Barcelona. They dont look up if it would be faster to take a train to Madrid and from Madrid to Barcelona. (or if the direct train is full)
I ve no clue why they dont do that...
So: You may wanna add that...
[edit] Topics, topics and more topics
This article is fulfilled with topics. E.g, it is said that southern Spain (Andalusian Country) is mostly desert.That's FALSE. Andalusia has high-mountain zones and very-green ones. The desert zone is Almeria, in eastern Andalusia.

[edit] Toooooooooo many cities!
Who knows enough to edit down the city list to 9?
Here's a start...
- Barcelona
- Bilbao
- Granada
- Seville
- Valencia
Cacahuate 11:14, 16 December 2006 (EST)
- I would add San Sebastián and Cordoba (city). That makes seven, so can still add two more - How about Santander and Cadiz to round off? WindHorse 11:29, 16 December 2006 (EST)
- Just realized that Madrid was not on your original list, so maybe skip Cadiz. It is an old city, but these days is not one of Spain's top commercial or tourist centers - though perhaps the north west corner is over represented with Bilbao, Santander and San Sebastian..... thoughts? WindHorse 11:39, 16 December 2006 (EST)
- oops, I just went forward and made those first nine... I don't know actually, perhaps leave it until someone objects? Cacahuate 11:47, 16 December 2006 (EST)
- I think you were making the change when I was adding the last comment. Anyway, I agree. Let's just leave the current list until someone offers a different opinion. WindHorse 11:52, 16 December 2006 (EST)

- Sometimes these big lists indicate that the subject area has not been sufficiently filled out in Wikitravel. It's a good idea to ensure that each of the cities you're delinking is still linked to from somewhere. Thanks for working on this!

[edit] Top-level regions
The region list needs to be simplified. The official autonomous regions are sensible travel regions, but there's just too many of them listed here to get a handle on (the old 5-to-9 rule). Since one of the fundamental geocultural divisions of Spain are its language groups, I'm proposing that we use that as the top level. This means taking a lot of majority-Castillian territory and lumping it all together, and to a lesser extent with Catalonian Spain, but those regions can be broken down into the smaller autonomous regions. My knowledge of Spanish geography is all textbook-based, so please correct me if there are serious problems with this hierarchy:
- The comment above is really wrong. Andalucia is not Castilian Spain. It's an autonomy with its own identity and culture, such as Catalonia or Basque Country. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 184.108.40.206 (talk • contribs)
- I realize that each region of Spain is distinct, but I was hoping to come up with some larger groupings, based on language, and the people of Andalucia do speak castellano. Like I said, I'm looking for information, so please help me out. Or do you think that language is a bad way to organize Spain? How would you suggest doing it? - Todd VerBeek 08:12, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
- How about, Madrid, Southern Spain (Andalucia and Murcia), Catalonian Spain (Catalonia and Valencia), Central Spain (Castila La Mancha, Castila y Leon, Rioja), Northwestern Spain (Galicia, Asturias, Cantabrias), Pais Vasco and the Spanish Pyrnees (Pais Vasco, Navarra, Aragon), The Islands (Canaries, Balearic islas). 7 regions in all.--Wandering 22:48, 24 October 2007 (EDT)
- This is a good start, but omits Extremadura. I also think the heading of Catalonian Spain will be too controversial, given the strength of Catalonia's separate identity. Every time I go to the region, I am reminded by locals that "Spain" is somewhere else.
- I went through the section earlier adding links, and at least combined Ceuta and Melilla. I'll give this topic some further thought, but trying to define regions in Spain is to open a real can of worms.Jnich99 16:13, 18 August 2008 (EDT)
- OK, here's another attempt at simplifying the regions list. I've gone for a geographical split, which is the way Europe is organised into regions, despite culturally-driven controversy over the boundaries of central and eastern Europe. Comments welcome.
- Northwestern Spain
- Basque Country and northern Spain
- Catalonia and northeastern Spain
- Central and western Spain
- Eastern Spain
- Andalucía
- Non-Iberian Spain
- This gives seven regions, one of which (central and western Spain) is a monster. As I said, suggestions and comments most welcome.Jnich99 04:21, 19 August 2008 (EDT)
- This looks pretty nice to me, probably better than the breakdown on the Spanish version article, which you might want to take a look at to compare. I don't know anything about travel in the country beyond Barcelona, though. If/when you finish this hierarchy project, would you please remind me to make a map! --Peter Talk 22:50, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- I've checked the Spanish language and Catalan versions, which are similar, and I think their North, East, South, West divisions are a bit clunky. Current French and German Wikitravel articles broadly replicate what we've got here. If there are no more comments, I'll take a crack at setting up the new hierarchy over the next week or two. Thanks, Jim Jnich99 08:48, 8 September 2008 (EDT)

I think this is a good breakdown, but we usually try to keep the names as short as possible... I would suggest:
- Northwestern Spain
- Basque Country and Northern Spain → Northern Spain
- Catalonia and Northeastern → Northeastern Spain
- Central and Western → Central Spain
- Eastern Spain
- Andalucía
And then for the non-Iberian part, I would simply list those islands and enclaves under "other destinations"... I would only create a top-level region for them if they were all near each other and grouped together well as a region. Nice work! – cacahuate talk 16:30, 20 September 2008 (EDT)
I agree with cacahuate, those region names look a lot better.
I even think Eastern Spain and Northeastern Spain could be combined, as both are Catalan regions. Combining Northwestern Spain and Northern Spain wouldn't be so bad as well I think. Globe-trotter 17:24, 2 September 2009 (EDT)
- Thanks for cleaning up. I'm cool with the changes, but have had less time to work on Wikitravel in the past year. Jnich99 15:01, 6 September 2009 (EDT)
"Central Spain" is too much diverse. For instance, Badajoz and Soria have very little, if nothing, to do, beside the low population density. Also, Madrid is way too different in many aspects; perhaps I didn't understand which criteria is being applied here. 18.104.22.168 10:26, 12 September 2009 (EDT)
[edit] North African enclaves
With the Balearic and Canary Islands (rightly) being top-level regions now, I think it's time to ditch useless and confusing Non-Iberian Spain "region" altogether (and that's a semi-orphaned page only linked from this discussion page, anyway). That leaves us two North African cities (Ceuta and Melilla) and some islands in the Mediterranean with no region assigned. I don't really like having them listed in the "Other destinations" section, a distinction based solely on geography (and they are not "other destinations" in the strictest Wikitravel sense anyway), and I'm not really a fan of the idea of having cities directly under the country level in the hierarchy with no intermediate regions. So, what about a region article named North African enclaves, or if that's too ambigious more explanatory but long-winded Spanish North African enclaves? (North African Spain may work, too, but users may think that should include Canary Islands.) I think I can put up a reasonably general article for this region, with at least some sections filled out. – Vidimian 10:08, 17 November 2010 (EST)
- I don't think a separate content area would work as both cities are fairly far away and separate from each other. I'd like a similar construction as used in Taiwan, where "Outlying territories" would be kept black and unlinked with the destinations behind it linked separately. --globe-trotter 15:36, 17 November 2010 (EST)
[edit] Revive discussion
I think this is an interesting way of combining the Spanish regions (see map). Murcia, Ceuta and Melilla would join Andalucía and make a region called Southern Spain. Aragon would join Northern Spain. Catalonia, the Valencian Community and the Balearen could form a Eastern Spain region.
I think these groupings make a lot of sense. The Catalan communities are grouped together: they share a language and culture, and many tourists drive their car along the coast combining Catalonia and Valencia. Aragon is not a beach destination and thus feels more "inland": that makes it fit better with the other Northern Spanish communities. And it gives a solution for Ceuta and Melilla in the South. --globe-trotter 13:12, 6 February 2011 (EST)
- I'm not any expert in Spain, but Eastern and Northern parts look reasonable to me. Only not sure Basque Country should be in the same region as Aragon etc, as they are too much different. --DenisYurkin 15:58, 6 February 2011 (EST)
- How about España Verde, which encompasses all Atlantic coast from Galicia to Basque Country. This seems to be a common tourism designation as well, having an official homepage [3] with links to websites of regional tourism associations. And aren't Balearic Islands important enough as to warrant their own top-level region (yes, the native language is Catalan there, too, but...). Otherwise, the regions looked good to me (neither am I an expert on Spain, though). – Vidimian 16:17, 6 February 2011 (EST)
- That sounds like a great idea. When discussing regions, I mostly thought about cultural features, but Green Spain shows that geographic features should come more into play as well. I attached a map that shows the different climate regions of Spain. The problem is that La Rioja, Navarre and Aragon are not a part of Green Spain, as they have a dry continental climate (also opposing the Mediterranean east). I think grouping these three together as "Northern Spain" would make sense. The Balearen are a major travel region, and I agree they should be their own top-level region. --globe-trotter 00:55, 13 February 2011 (EST)
- Yep, "Green Spain" should only be set aside for northwestern/Atlantic regions. Inland regions should form a seperate region, and I'd be fine with naming it Northern Spain or Pyrenean Spain. – Vidimian 13:10, 13 February 2011 (EST)
- What do we do about Murcia? I'd say historically it was a part of La Mancha, so it could easily be grouped with Central Spain. Also, climatically it is a steppe, VERY hot, which has more in common with the immensely hot Central Spain as opposed to the cooler coastal regions. Also, it is not Catalan like Eastern Spain and it is not Andalucian like the South. On the other hand, it is a coastal region, so grouping it as Central might be a bit odd. What do you think? --globe-trotter 16:38, 24 February 2011 (EST)
- From what I understand, people visit Murcia primarily for its beaches, just like they do in Costa del Sol; and local Spanish dialect is not that far from Andalusian Spanish, so I think Murcia and Andalusia goes well together. And as far as I could see, Wikipedia article on La Mancha makes no mention of Murcia; saying "La Mancha is ... located on ... elevated plateau (610 m or 2000 ft.) of central Spain". – Vidimian 13:19, 25 February 2011 (EST)
[edit] guidelines on Eat sections of spanish cities
<placeholder for what we've agreed so far>
After reading and editing a dozen of articles on Spanish cities, I came to conclusion that we need some guidelines on how to describe Eat general info and listings. Here's what I came to at the moment:
- don't introduce in local article terms that are global for the whole Spain or its region (Catalonia, Basque Country, Aragon): menu del dia, tapas, pintxos, Jamón Serrano and Jamón Iberico, --instead, contribute your corrections to Spain article or to its region the info is specific for.
- be sure that local dishes you introduce are really local, not available through all Spain--in the latter case, contribute your description to the Spain article
- list tapas bars in Drink section, not Eat: it's impossible in most cases to have full-meal dinner or lunch in a tapas bar, and tapas is supposed to be eaten with alco drinks (beer, cider, wine) in most cases
- for traditional restaurants (as opposed to tapas bars), define price range basing on main course: "Mains generally €X-Y". It's ok to allow few unregularly expensive exceptions that don't fit into a range, like lobster kind of delicacies.
- for restaurants, state whether it offers menu del dia or other kind of set menu. If there're some restrictions (i.e. available only Mon-Fri, 1:30pm-4:30pm)--mention it.
- (I would vote to define the same price ranges to be used throughout the country. Do we have many destinations that are priced much differently from the rest of Spain?)
- split listings at least into Traditional Spanish food and Non-Spanish food--use categories like this as a sublevel under Budget/Mid-Range/Splurge top-level classification
- create separate section for restaurants open during siesta (4:30pm-8:30pm)
I would welcome any comments, additions and objections on the above.
Another thing is how to make editors of any Spanish city aware of the guidelines we agree upon. I would welcome any ideas on that. --DenisYurkin 15:29, 21 October 2007 (EDT)
[edit] seafood notice is too generalized
> Spaniards are very concerned about the freshness of seafood and you may place an order only to have the waiter tell you that he can not serve this dish, because they did not receive this particular seafood freshly that day. It is very unlikely that you will find dishes prepared from frozen fish in a real Spanish restaurant
This is not true for many touristic places around Barcelona and Aragon.
With exception to specialized seafood restaurants and few specifically reputated general restaurants, I would not list this as a general rule. Any objections to removing it in how it is written now? --DenisYurkin 17:00, 21 October 2007 (EDT)
- None. The person who wrote that statement has obviously not eaten in many low end restaurants where frozen fish is not unlikely. I agree that in coastal Spain fresh fish is more likely than not, but, in cheap 'real Spanish restaurants' in interior regions, especially around Madrid, fresh fish is hard to come by.--Wandering 22:41, 24 October 2007 (EDT)
- Done, see Spain#Restaurants. Any further edits and clarifications would be welcome. --DenisYurkin 18:47, 9 November 2007 (EST)
1. 400 km away from the sea, you will find frozen seafood and fish unless you go to a expensive place (or unless you live in Madrid). But it cannot be forgotten that Spain is the 2nd consumer of fish in the world and generally we like it fresh - frozen fish is not exactly the same as "fish and chips". So even if it is frozen, and the quality cannot compete in Castilla with what you find in Galicia... in a not-so-bad place it is still of reasonable quality.
2. As a rule of the thumb, eating what is growth in the area is a good idea. Everywehere. So, why not make a comment on river-fish? Trouts are very popular and tasty in the inside regions. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 220.127.116.11 (talk • contribs)

[edit] coffee chains
I've re-edited the recent edit of Tea and Coffee section and invite do discuss it here.
My point is that, while we can dispute on quality of coffee at Star Bucks, theres no national chain which either has so many outlets or which is as consistent in its quality level as Star Bucks is. I would welcome to hear arguments and facts counter to my point. --DenisYurkin 17:50, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
- As another removal of my text followed, I've made a third attempt to re-write my phrase. Is it still controversial to someone? --DenisYurkin 17:13, 21 November 2007 (EST)
[edit] mineral water
The article gives no hints on local mineral water. Which are the tastiest? Most famous? Have highest content of minerals? Most rich in taste?
Any recommendations? ;-) -DenisYurkin 18:22, 9 November 2007 (EST)
At restaurants, bars, etc., people just order "mineral water" without reference to any specific brand. While shopping at the supermarket, choice is primarily governed by concerns such as price, availability, and even shape of container (5 litre and 8 litre bottles are most common, and different designs offer varying degrees of convenience, e.g., for transport or when pouring the contents). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 220.127.116.11 (talk • contribs)
[edit] papas bravas
> The name of this plate comes from its sharp flavor, indicating that it has fire or temperament, recalling the first operation of I goad in which a goad nails to him so that he is brave in the bullfight.
I'm not sure I understand what is all this about. What is goad here? And I goad? A goad nails to whom? --DenisYurkin 08:46, 10 November 2007 (EST)
Bravo = Brave, Fiery. "Brave Potatoes" (very very popular) --> strong, spicy, sharp. No idea whats a goad.
[edit] 24-hour pharmacy
> Every city and town has at least one 24 hour pharmacy.
How universal is this rule? I think this is not the case in Alquezar, where it looked like no shops work 24 hours even in a hot season. --DenisYurkin 16:44, 19 November 2007 (EST)
- It is completely universal, but complex anyway. By law, in any town in Spain there must be, at any time, an open pharmacy.If the town is so small that that would make a really nuisance for the chemist, that rule is applied to the shire(comarca), or to a group of surrounding towns, that are usually very close one to each other. In bigger towns and cities, there are always one or two open pharmacies during the night, and they're called 'farmacia de guardia'. The problem is that they're not always the same one: the pharmacies within the city usually take turns to open all the night around. However, if you come to need one during the night, and the one you find is closed, you should look next to the door of the pharmacy, for there you should find a poster that will tell you which is the pharmacy opened that night, and where to find it. In recent years 24 hours pharmacies are becoming popular in Spain, and in some big cities (Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Bilbao,..) you may find one of those. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 184.108.40.206 (talk • contribs)
- I've tried to reflect the above in the article; correct me right there if I've misunderstood something. --DenisYurkin 16:32, 21 November 2007 (EST)
- Also, one must bear in mind that the pharmacy on duty can look closed, you have to ring a bell and have the pharmacist come to the door to ask you what you want/need. Signed Daniela Huguet.
- Plunge forward! --DenisYurkin 14:56, 19 October 2010 (EDT)
[edit] varieties of jamons
1. Looks like we have pieces from too many sources packed into a single paragraph on jamons:
- Jamón (air dried ham): Jamón Serrano (Serrano ham): A tinned food obtained from the salt meat of the back legs of the pig and air dried. This same product is given the name of trowel or paletilla when it is obtained from the front legs. Also it receives the names of jamón Iberico (Iberian) and jamón of bellota (acorn). They are specially famous jamones that takes place in Huelva (Spain), in Guijuelo (province Salamanca), in the Pedroches (province Cordova) and in Trevélez (province of Granada). Jamón Iberico is made from free range pigs.
Could someone add clarity on what's what, how they are different etc? Right now it's so complex that it's nearly useless
2. From my experience, two most cited sorts of jamon are Iberico (min €80/kg) and Serrano (~€25/kg).
Is there anything worthwhile between €25 and €80, or it's purely "25 or 80+" choice?
--DenisYurkin 21:22, 23 November 2007 (EST)
The cheapest is just Jamón Serrano (Serrano Ham), Jamón curado (cured ham), then more expensive is Jamón Ibérico (Iberian Ham) made from better pigs. Finally Jamón de Bellota (Acorn Ham) and Pata Negra (Black Hoof) made from pigs fed mostly with acorns, and extremely expensive. Jamón de Jabugo (a region of Spain) is another expensive variety. Tasting serrano ham will do for most tourist, but the taste of acorn black hoof ham is definitely delicious but expensive. Do not trust somebody offering you cheap acorn ham or pata negra. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jam%C3%B3n_serrano is not so bad, as well as its links to varieties of ham. 184.108.40.206 13:19, 19 December 2007 (EST)

[edit] pintxos counted by toothpicks
I heard that somewhere in Spain, you pay for pintxos postfactum, by the number of toothpicks you leave on the plate. I have never seen that in San Sebastian. Anyone experienced similar practice somewhere? Where is this a common practice? --DenisYurkin 06:42, 13 January 2008 (EST)

Re this edit [4]:

[edit] brands of toothpaste
"Some international brands you may be used to are not available in Spain: Blend-a-Med toothpaste or Dirol ( Stimorol chewing gum has been available for years) Bring in enough for your whole trip if you can't live without it." - is this paragraph really worthy of inclusion? Just wondering the proportion of visitors to Spain who are actually concerned about the availability of a particular type of toothpaste. Also the sentence seems to imply that these are things available in every country with a peculiar exception of Spain - surely not the case! Phonemonkey 09:50, 1 November 2008 (EDT)
- I think it's useful for those travelers who have these brands omnipresent in their home country, and knows they are international brands. It doesn't imply these are available in every country (and neither other warnings "it's not like what you are used to" elsewhere in Wikitravel do). If you see any way to improve, please share your ideas. If not, just ignore these pieces if you find them irrelevant for you. --DenisYurkin 17:37, 20 December 2008 (EST)
- But seriously - every country and region has different brands of everything. Even different cities. We can't possibly include all the brands that don't exist in at a destination. This is such a general rule of travelling anywhere, if you only want the brands you can find at home - take it with you, else be prepared to use what you can find at your destination. If toothpaste wasn't easily available - fine, worth a mention - but if the brand you like isn't? It can't just be ignored IMO, the same as the trite Respect sections can't be. --inas 19:10, 26 August 2009 (EDT)
[edit] finding any costume or food in every corner of the country
I've removed the following piece from this [5] edit, as it's way too general to be practically true for a traveler:
- * All regions in Spain may have different typical foods and costumes, however, you won't find any troubles in finding all sort of national drinks and foods from all regions in all corners of the country.
Please provide more details on what is meant before adding it back to the article. --DenisYurkin 14:32, 1 January 2009 (EST)
[edit] Tea and coffee chains
Starbucks, as stated in the article, is not the only national chain of coffee and tea, as also Café&Té operates in the main cities. I am pretty sure there may be one or two more chains, however.
Also, I think Starbucks is far from being only a place for tourists. Spain is indeed one of the most important european markets of the company and I usually find them crowded with both tourists and locals.
[edit] rental deposit
> Keep in mind that rental companies hold a large deposit ( up to 2000 Euros ) for vehicle rentals.
We need more specifics on this warning, as it counter to my own experience. Where, which rental company and for what car; did you provide a credit card or was it cash-only deposit and payment? I reverted it for a while from the article. --DenisYurkin 01:54, 18 November 2010 (EST)
[edit] Renting a car
"Consider having full-coverage insurance instead of franchise:" <-- What does this mean? I can make no sense of this statement. Please edit. 18.104.22.168 14:29, 9 September 2013 (EDT)
[edit] Get in entry requirements
In case anyone wants to know the source of my edits to include information about the visa exemption for 'Annex II' nationals to work during their 90 day visa-free entry, see this European Union document - [6]. 184.108.40.206 17:41, 30 May 2011 (EDT)
[edit] Bullfighting
Whatever left-wing self-righteous individual that keeps changing the section on bullfighting, PLEASE STOP. If you're from Catalonia, and you want people to know that in Catalonia it's outlawed update it in the Catalonia section. Whatever. In REAL SPAIN, it's a cultural heritage icon, and all of us have grandfathers that would think twice before giving the thumbs up to ban it. I say real Spain because it seems that every year, you pass a law to distance yourselves further and further away from Madrid.
Don't use words like "MOST" people to describe the attitude of Spaniards and bullfighting. It is a polemic issue, but just because you feel it to be a certain way, doesn't mean all of us agree with you. And yes, I am a young (26 yr old) Spaniard.

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) –- Hong Kong stocks fell for the seventh session in a row Thursday as energy producers such as PetroChina Co. skidded on falling crude-oil prices and as many property developers dropped after data showing a steep decline in April transactions.
Indian stocks were on course for their ninth successive day of losses after Bharti Airtel Ltd.'s results disappointed, while stocks in Sydney rebounded from a six-week low as National Australia Bank Ltd. beat earnings estimates.
Overall, a sense of caution prevailed before the European Central Bank's interest-rate meeting later in the day, and after dropping commodity prices and weak U.S. economic data weighed on Wall Street overnight.
Asia Today: Renren's upbeat IPO
Renren shares get off to a strong start despite the social-networking firm's last-minute stumbles.
"Commodities have been the story over the past couple sessions . . . there's certainly no one just quite ready to stand in front of this," said Michael Turner, a Sydney-based strategist with RBC Capital Markets.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng index /quotes/zigman/2622475/realtime HK:HSI -0.19% fell 0.2% to 23,261.61, China's Shanghai Composite /quotes/zigman/1859015/realtime CN:SHCOMP -0.08% rose 0.2% to 2,872.40, Australia's S&P/ASX 200 /quotes/zigman/1653884/realtime AU:XJO +0.30% gained 0.3% to 4,753.70, Taiwan's Taiex advanced 0.8% to 9,018.61 and in afternoon trading, India's Sensex slid 1.1% to 18,269.97.
Markets in Japan, South Korea and Thailand were shut for public holidays.
Dow Jones Industrial Average /quotes/zigman/627449/realtime DJIA +0.19% futures were 10 points higher in screen trade.
Falling commodity prices kept investors on edge, with a continued selloff in silver prices reflecting the heightened risk aversion.
Prices of spot silver were bid at $38.55 a troy ounce, 84 cents lower than the settlement in New York. The metal has lost about a fifth of its value just this week. Spot gold, meanwhile, edged $4.50 lower to $1,510.90 an ounce. June crude-oil futures also continued to selloff, trading at $108.88 a barrel in electronic trading.
Several resource-sector stocks in the region buckled under the impact of those moves.
In Hong Kong, Cnooc Ltd. /quotes/zigman/274848/delayed/quotes/nls/ceo CEO -1.24% /quotes/zigman/29647/realtime HK:883 -0.80% skidded 2% and Jiangxi Copper Co. /quotes/zigman/332900/delayed/quotes/nls/jixay JIXAY -4.25% /quotes/zigman/16454/realtime HK:358 -0.77% gave up 1.8%, while PetroChina /quotes/zigman/257868/delayed/quotes/nls/ptr PTR -0.50% /quotes/zigman/21986/realtime HK:857 0.00% fell 2.6% in Hong Kong and 0.5% in Shanghai; Cairn India Ltd. gave up 1.4% and Sterlite Industries India Ltd. lost 2.5% in afternoon trading.

"The Hong Kong market remains in a consolidation mode, but it's not alone, as we can see the China markets and the U.S. markets are having similar trading patterns," said Prudential Brokerage's associate director Alvin Cheung.
Property developers also skidded on data showing that the number of transactions fell 23% in April from the previous month, and 27% from the year-earlier period. The decline follows a sharp increase in prices over the past several quarters, and amid rising mortgage rates in the city. Shares of Cheung Kong Holdings Ltd. /quotes/zigman/13969/realtime HK:1 +0.56% fell 0.6% and Hang Lung Properties Ltd. /quotes/zigman/13902/realtime HK:101 0.00% dropped 1.6%.
Shares of Esprit Holdings Ltd. /quotes/zigman/38257/realtime HK:330 -0.67% /quotes/zigman/577081/delayed/quotes/nls/espgy ESPGY -0.26% shed 2.5% after J.P. Morgan cut the fashion wholesaler and retailer's earnings estimates and price target.
In Sydney, however, many resource stocks recovered after losses suffered in the recent past. The market rose as data released earlier Thursday showed the country's March retail sales fell 0.5% from February, compared with an expected 0.5% rise. First-quarter retail sales were flat on quarter, compared with an expected 0.7% gain.

March 12, 2003
This week the Judiciary Committee is holding its fourth and fifth hearings this year involving a total of 20 Article III judicial nominees, three nominees to the Court of Federal Claims and two nominees to the Sentencing Commission. This is so much faster and more extensive than in prior years in which the Republican majority was last in charge, it makes one's head spin. This week, the Republican-led Senate Judiciary Committee will hold its sixth hearing for a circuit court nominee since January. In all of 1996 and in all of 2000, the Republican majority did not hold hearings on as many as six circuit nominees. In 1997 and 1999, Republicans did not hold a hearing for as many as six circuit nominees until September and, in 1995, this mark was not reached until June. Never in any of their most recent six and one-half years in the majority did Republicans hold hearings for as many as six circuit court nominees by March, never. In addition, it was not until the fall of 1997 that Republicans proceeded with hearings as many as 20 Article III judicial nominees of President Clinton and in the three other years in which they were in the majority during the Clinton Administration, they took until the summer to reach that benchmark. The current pace makes the editorial cartoons about assembly line rubber-stamping of lifetime appointments to the federal bench all too accurate. The Senate Judiciary Committee review and hearing process has been changed overnight by the Republican majority as have so many aspects of the confirmation process. Their double standards are showing in the way they approach hearings, Committee debates and floor action on judicial nominees.
We all know that we work better when we work together in a bipartisan manner; when we honor traditions and rules that respect both sides of the aisle; when there is give and take; when there is advising, as well as consenting. I am sorry that the Bush Administration is so resistant to those traditions, those processes and bipartisanship. I believe that we need to uphold the Aadvice@ prong of our advise and consent responsibilities by involving home-state Senators, this Committee and the Senate. I continue to hear from home-state Senators that they receive little more than notification from this Administration and that it remains most reluctance to consult about potential nominations. When Democrats were in the majority in the 107th Congress, we took many steps in good faith to repair damage done to the confirmation process through the intransigence shown to President Clinton's nominees by a Republican Senate. We confirmed 100 of President Bush's judicial nominees in that time - including to circuits for which Republicans had repeatedly refused to act on Clinton nominees. The Democratic Senate acted far faster and more fairly than the Republican-led Senate had with Clinton nominees.
This Administration continues to resist efforts to increase the use of bipartisan selection commissions, which have been so useful for so many years and worked so well in previous Administrations. Such bipartisan commissions can help us all ensure that nominees are selected based upon professional merit and experience. The recommendations of such commissions have the support of members from their community on both sides of aisle. Accordingly, these bipartisan commissions can help preserve the independence and integrity of the judicial branch of government and ensure the fair and equal administration of justice and enforcement of the law.
This President's White House Counsel has indicated publicly that he disfavors bipartisan committees because he believes that they Ausurp the president=s constitutional authority to choose judges.@ That is so unfortunate. Recommendations from bipartisan commissions have helped me, many other Senators and many other Presidents as we fulfill our constitutional duties in connection with judicial appointments. Bipartisan commissions do not make nominations in lieu of the President and do not confirm in place of the Senate. The Administration=s disdain for bipartisan commissions ignores past precedent and longstanding traditions.
To their credit, the Senators from California have persevered in their efforts to have potential candidates for at least the federal district courts in their State to be reviewed by bipartisan review committees. I am pleased to see two nominees from California on today=s hearing who are the product of the bipartisan selection commission established by the Senators from California and the White House. Both of these nominees are current judges who come before us with the support of California=s highly-regarded selection commissions. I welcome Judge Carney and Judge Selna and their families here today. I regret that the President and his advisors have resisted naming other qualified recommendations from those commissions over the last two years.
The two other District Court nominees before us today are from Indiana. They, too, are supported by their home-state Senators, a bipartisan delegation. Senator Bayh supports them and Senator Lugar wrote me a wonderful letter about the outstanding qualifications of these two nominees. I have a great deal of respect for their judgment and I look forward to hearing from Magistrate Judge Springman and Mr. Simon today.
Today, we also have before us two nominees each to the Court of Federal Claims and the U.S. Sentencing Commission. Appointments to these two specialized bodies have enjoyed a tradition of bipartisanship. I fear that bipartisan cooperation is breaking down, however. The rules are again changing and this Administration appears to be acting unilaterally in disregard for tradition and bipartisanship in the selection of nominees to this court and commission as it has so far in connection with the U.S. Parole Commission. That, too, is most unfortunate and unnecessary.
The process for nominating judges to the Court of Federal Claims has traditionally included accommodation and compromise. For more than two years Senate Republicans blocked President Clinton=s appointment of Larry Baskir to the court until a compromise could be reached. They refused to give him a hearing and refused to allow any of the other vacancies to be filled unless the Clinton Administration promised to keep conservative Judge Loren Smith as the Chief Judge. Republicans also insisted on the reappointment of another Republican appointee, Judge Christine Miller. Finally, Senator Hatch agreed to allow five Clinton nominees to have hearings and votes if the Administration also named a member of his staff to the court and promised to retain Judge Smith as Chief until his retirement into lifetime senior status at the end of his term appointment.
Upon Chief Judge Smith's Aretirement,@ President Clinton named Judge Baskir the Chief Judge. Shortly after his inauguration, President George W. Bush summarily removed Judge Baskir as Chief Judge and installed Judge Damich as the Chief Judge.
Last fall when the Democrats were in the majority, we took the exceptional action of quickly moving the nomination of Larry Block to the Court of Federal Claims at the request of the Ranking Republican, Senator Hatch. At that time, I noted that we would expect fairness and consideration in return, including true bipartisan consultation with respect to Federal Court of Claims nominations. Despite our accommodation on Judge Block=s nomination, the White House refused to act on the nomination of Judge Sarah Wilson, who up until a few months ago was already serving with distinction on the Court of Federal Claims. Judge Wilson is a well‑respected and talented lawyer who graduated from Columbia Law School, clerked for a federal judge, was a fellow with the Administrative Office of the Courts, and served in the Department of Justice and in a prior White House. Yet the Administration and the Senate Republicans refused to accommodate our request to consider her nomination for a continued position on the court. Indeed, none of this Administration's nominations to the Court of Federal Claims are being made at the suggestion of the Senate's Democratic Leader.
It troubles me that despite a long history of compromise and accommodation regarding appointments to this court, there has been no consultation with the Democratic leadership regarding the remaining nominations to the Court of Federal Claims. Instead, the White House proceeds as it does with most thingsB unilaterally.
It is unfortunate that this Administration has adopted the same approach with respect to the Sentencing Commission. As my colleagues well remember, President Clinton worked long and hard at reaching a compromise with Senate Republican leaders on a slate of nominees to this important Commission. Seats went unfilled for too long while a Democratic White House negotiated with Majority Leader Lott and Chairman Hatch. Finally, in late 1999, we were able to get agreement from the Republican caucus and nominations went forward. Instead of honoring this tradition and doing what President Clinton had done, President Bush did not consult with Senate Democrats. Thus, with respect to the nominations before us today for the Sentencing Commission, they are not based on recommendations of the Senate's Democratic Leader or leadership. That is certainly not consistent with the traditions and understandings so long adhered to between White Houses and Senate leaders. It is just another example of the serious lack of consultation between the White House and Senate Democrats on nominations of all sorts.
Mr. Victor Wolski is one of the President's nominees to the Court of Federal Claims. In 1999, Mr. Wolski told the National Journal that Aevery single job [he has] taken since college has been ideologically oriented, trying to further [his] principles.@ Mr. Wolski has dedicated his brief legal career to expanding property rights and restricting the power of government. I am concerned that Mr. Wolski has been moved to the front of the list of nominees to the Court of Federal Claims because of his ideology. His has advocated for property rights at the expense of environmental protection. The Court of Federal Claims has jurisdiction for many so-called "takings" cases that seek large monetary damages from the government. I fear that Mr. Wolski was selected for this particular nomination to implement an ideological agenda from the bench.
I am also concerned that this particular court has no pressing need for additional judges in light of its caseload. My friends on the other side of the aisle repeatedly asserted when a Democratic President occupied the White House that we should not be confirming nominees to courts where the caseload is especially light. Senators Sessions and Grassley have both argued that vacancies on courts such as the D.C. Circuit should remain open due to the enormous costs that are involved in filling positions. Senator Grassley told us that it costs U.S. taxpayers about a million dollars per judge. A recent law review article by Professor Schooner at the George Washington Law School has issued a comprehensive report on the Court of Federal Claims. In this report, he compiles data on the surprisingly light caseload of the 24 judges who currently serve on the Court of Federal Claims. We will need to consider whether there is a sufficient need for additional judges on this specialized court.
If we decide that additional positions are necessary on the Court of Federal Claims, I urge the White House and Chairman Hatch to work with us to assemble the type of bipartisan panel that Senator Hatch helped assemble in 1997 and 1998 to fill the justified vacancies on the Court of Federal Claims in a way that respects the tradition of bipartisanship that has been required for appointments to this court.
It is one thing for a President to appoint members of his Cabinet to carry out his political agenda, but it should be different with respect to judicial appointments. When a President makes nominations for positions to a co-equal branch of government, he should not be able to tip the scales of justice by packing the courts with ideologues who are selected to implement his political agenda. Recently, Walter Dellinger noted that the President=s Aslate of nominees, considered as a whole, . . .[ is] a list tilted to the right and from which any other views have been carefully culled.@ I agree that we need to broaden the slate. Working together on the Court of Federal Claims, traditional bipartisan commission, through bipartisan judicial selection commissions and in other ways are important places to continue our traditions of bipartisanship on which Republicans were so insistent during the Clinton Administration.

99-02 Silverado Flasher Module replacement
I want to upgrade all my flashing lights (turn signals, brake lights, reverse lights, and daytime running lamps) to LED's. I did not want to deal with the headache of putting load resistors in line for each light so I picked up a replacement Flasher Module.
- GM#: 12450072 (original flasher module)
- Aftermarket: EP29L (LED compatible flasher module)
Box and un boxing:
Comparing the GM to the Aftermarket module:
Locating the flasher module:
The socket for the flasher module is a tight fit and the LED compatible module has little spikes on the sides of the spades that go into the socket; such that the new module does not sit all the way in the socket. Even with the new module not plugged in that extra 2mm, it is in the socket tight and will not move.
I have yet to order my LED bulbs for my turn signals, brake lights and reverse lamps. Once I do and install them I will update this to verify that I do not have any "hyperflash" with the switchback LED's.

Hey bro hows it going? I have a couple of questions about the Flasher module. What is the difference between both of them? What does the LED Flasher module do that the Original flasher module can't do?

10-09-2012, 05:45 PM #3With the LED-compat flasher module you don't need to install load resistors when you upgrade signal bulbs to from incandescent bulbs to LED bulbs. (It can handle both bulb types without hyperflashing the LEDs and burning them out.)
For my truck the required load resistors and the flasher module worked out to about the same price when shipping was factored into the equation on the load resistors -- but it was a 5 minute installation and much, much cleaner to replace the flasher module.
On Nak's truck it might well have saved him money to order the flasher module AND it's a faster, cleaner install -- as that flasher module is cheaper than what my truck uses.
Hi Omar,
Surreal is right, Inside the flasher module they are almost exactly the same, but the resistances are slightly different for the LED compatible version where you do not need to put the load resistors on each line to avoid the hyperflash problem with LED's in turn signals, brake lights, etc.
The one for our trucks (looks like you have a 99) is about $16-$18 + Shipping. The ones for newer trucks like Surreals run between $32-$52 depending on whom you buy it from. The load resisters run about $5 each and I think you need either 6 or 12 (one for each light) of those if you choose not to use a new flasher module.

The Ultimate Financial Protection: When to Freeze Your Account
By Suze Orman
Oprah.com | From the September 2007 issue of
O, The Oprah Magazine
A representative from my bank called recently to ask whether I had received my new credit card. Since my current one wasn't due to expire for five more years, I asked why they sent a replacement. The agent said there had been a copyright problem, and they reissued all the cards without notification. I never got mine, but apparently someone else did. That person tried to use my card to buy a report from an online data broker that would include my name, my parents' names, and my Social Security number. I asked the bank representative how the charge was processed when I never activated the card, and she said it was declined. Should I have my credit report frozen?
At the risk of making you more worried, are you sure that was your bank calling? Scammers are infamous for getting people to cough up personal information by posing as concerned customer service agents on the phone or by sending official-looking e-mails.
I want you to be doubly safe if this ever happens again: When you get a call or an e-mail from a financial institution, politely hang up or walk away from your computer. Then call customer service and explain that you just received an inquiry and want to confirm its legitimacy. The representative can pull up your record to see if anything warrants your attention.
While it sounds like you dodged a bullet this time, you're smart to be concerned. A credit freeze is indeed the ultimate protection. Unfortunately, not all states allow consumers to freeze their reports. In
"Protecting Yourself Against Identity Theft"
, I explain the rules, along with steps you can take to better safeguard your financial information.

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Patrick Leahy
United States Senator
Statement of Senator Patrick Leahy The Committee today will explore whether Congress should add to the ever-increasing burdens on local law enforcement by tasking these local officers with the authority to enforce Federal civil immigration law. This is a bad idea and Congress should reject it. We should be clear at the outset that law enforcement officers already have the authority to detain and arrest aliens who violate the criminal provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act, or who violate any other criminal law. Indeed, the Law Enforcement Support Center in my state of Vermont operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide criminal history information regarding aliens to state and local law enforcement officers around the nation. I think that if you polled local law enforcement officers, most would say they do not want the additional authority of detaining and arresting aliens who have overstayed their visas but are doing no harm in their communities. I know that police chiefs and sheriffs across the country have opposed this additional authority, in places as varied as High Point, North Carolina; Putnam County, Tennessee; Cobb County, Georgia; and Lenexa and Overland Park, Kansas. The California Police Chiefs Association and the Los Angeles, San Diego, New York, Houston, San Antonio, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago and Washington, D.C. police departments, among many others, have also spoken out against enlisting state and local authorities to enforce civil immigration laws. The widespread opposition to this concept should come as no surprise. Many police departments have spent years building trust among immigrant communities so that all residents in their communities - including those who are not here legally - will feel free to report and assist police in solving crimes. They have gone about the business of protecting their communities, and left the Federal government to enforce civil immigration laws. This division of labor makes a great deal of sense, and the burden faced by those who would change it should be awfully high. It is particularly absurd to add this burden to local law enforcement at a time when the Republican Congress and the Bush Administration are failing to provide sufficient aid to first responders. Estimates show that the U.S. will fall more than $98 billion short of meeting critical emergency responder needs over the next five years if current funding levels are not increased. Clearly, the domestic preparedness funds available are still not enough to protect from, prepare for and respond to future domestic terrorist attacks anywhere on American soil, let alone take on the additional burden of enforcing civil immigration laws. Beyond the burden this would place on local law enforcement, immigrant victims of crime could suffer tremendously if the responsibility for enforcing our immigration laws shifts to states and localities. How often will crime victims who are here illegally come forward to the police? This concern is particularly acute in the case of battered immigrant women, whom Congress has taken great steps to protect under the Violence Against Women Act. We will undo the progress we have made in that area if immigrant women who are beaten by their husbands are afraid to contact police officers. For that reason, the Vermont Network Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault opposes the legislation we will discuss today. In a related question, how will police gain the cooperation of undocumented aliens who witness or have information about a crime? The chilling effect of adopting this new policy could be widespread and deeply harmful to law enforcement and immigrants alike. In conclusion, I have deep reservations about heading down this path, and I hope that Congress will not do so. |

I'm just guessing, but I think for question "c." you can't take an average because when you want to multiply by 4 or more, what number do you pick 4.3, 4.2, 4.1, or 4, etc. I would call the formula a weighted average. ( 0 x 7083 ) + (1 x 18621) + (2 x 22414) + (3 x 5533) + (4 or more times 2797)____________________________________________________________________ (7083 + 18621 + 22414 + 5533 + 2797)That horizontal line is the divide by sign. It's a fraction.

Neil Gaiman on Ghosts, Santa Claus, and Other Real Things
If you were just listening to him, you might confuse author Neil Gaiman for Alan Rickman, or Benedict Cumberbatch: all three Brits have very deep, slightly nasal and unquestioning authoritative voices that we associate with professors, wizards and Sherlock Holmes. So even though by trade Mr. Gaiman is more well-known for his writing–epic graphic novels like The Sandman, fantasy staples like American Gods and Stardust and Coraline– when Mr. Gaiman decides its time to start talking, everyone else shuts up.
He even managed to make the crowd at the New York Public Library fall silent for over an hour on Sunday to hear him read A Christmas Carol, from a special copy that Charles Dickens had edited himself for live performances, and which were rediscovered by Molly Oldfield in her recent book The Secret Museum, which she spoke about after Mr. Gaiman took off his top hat. (He also wore a fake Dickensian beard throughout to help get into character, which is real commitment.) Which, considering how many children were in the audience, was a miracle on par with Scrooge's change of heart.
"It's a wonderful time to tell stories about the dead," Mr. Gaiman told The Observer earlier that morning over breakfast. He was referring, obviously, to Christmas. "You've got winter. You got the depths of winter. You have the whole peddling around a fireside thing. You have long nights."

Struggling with the challenges of working nights? If you're not sleeping well, read on.
Are you among the millions of night-shift workers in America's workplaces? Do you work when most people are asleep and try to sleep when the rest of the world is awake? Do you get enough sleep? If you're like many night-shift workers, the answer to this last question is no. Overall, nighttime workers (those who work between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m.) get less sleep than daytime workers do, and the sleep is less restful. Did you know that 10% to 20% of night-shift workers report falling asleep on the job-usually during the second half of the shift?
You can take several steps to successfully fall asleep and stay asleep when you need to (see Tips for successful shut-eye). The key is to make sleep a priority!! Set the stage for sleep even when it's broad daylight outside. Prepare your body and mind for sleep. Wear wraparound dark glasses on your way home from work to keep morning sunlight from activating your internal daytime clock. Follow bedtime rituals and try to keep a regular sleep schedule, even on weekends. Go to sleep as soon as possible after work.
At home, ask family and friends to help create a quiet and peaceful setting during your sleep time. Have them wear headphones while listening to music or watching TV. Ban vacuuming, dishwashing, and noisy games during your sleep time. Put a "do not disturb" sign on the front door so that delivery people and friends won't knock or ring the doorbell. Schedule household repairs for when you wake up. When you're working night shifts, trying to maintain family relationships and social and community ties is difficult. The need to sleep during the day means that you often miss family activities, entertainment, and other social interactions. Talk with family and friends about your concerns and ask for their help in scheduling time with them.
Keeping a regular sleep schedule, even on days off and weekends, is important. However, if you can't get enough sleep or feel drowsy, try a short nap; even 20 minutes can be helpful. It can maintain or improve alertness, performance, and mood. Even if you feel groggy or sleepier after a quick nap, those feelings usually pass within 15 minutes, but the benefits of the nap may last for many hours.
Prescription sleep medications don't cure sleep problems, but they may be recommended for short-term use. Ask your health care provider whether this type of medication would help you, particularly for one or two sleep cycles after your schedule changes.
If you've tried some of these tips and your efforts to get enough sleep aren't working, consider seeking professional help. Your health care provider can help identify the cause and recommend how it could be treated or managed, evaluate your sleep problem, and determine whether you may have a sleep disorder that may require an expert's help.
