BARS AND RESTAURANTS IN COVID CRISIS

 Spain prepares support package to aid bars and restaurants hit by coronavirus crisis

(BY PILAR ARIZA- ADM 3)

The plan has become increasingly urgent as Spain’s regions introduce new restrictions to contain the second wave of the pandemic – many of which affect the sector.

 In Asturias, Castilla y León, Navarre, Murcia, Galicia and Catalonia, the entire hostelry industry has been shut down, while in Andalusia, bars and restaurants must end table service by 6pm; in Aragon, they close at 8pm 

 Other measures, such as the nighttime curfew,  have also hurt businesses in the hostelry industry.

IMMIGRANTS IN THE CANARY ISLANDS

 Spain will set up emergency camps for up to 7,000 migrants as part of a plan to tackle the huge influx of arrivals in the Canary Islands, the government said Friday.

The plan also involves reinforcing Salvamento Maritimo's coastguard rescue teams in the area, alongside a diplomatic offensive as part of a concerted push to address the crisis in the holiday islands where more than 12,000 people have landed since September.

Migration Minister Jose Luis Escriva unveiled the details at a news conference in Gran Canaria after talks with regional officials who want urgent government action given the saturation of the islands' migrant services

THE BEST SUMMER I’VE EVER HAD !!!

 THE BEST SUMMER I’VE EVER HAD (by Patricia A.)

 

Last March, Covid-19 came into our lives and absolutely everything changed. 
After the quarantine no one was excited about summer as it seemed 
boring and unexciting. Nevertheless, it was not like we thought it would.

 

Firstly, I started my summer going everyday to an activity program to exercise. 
We played lots of sports, such as badminton, cycling, volleyball or table tennis.
 It was so enjoyable due to the fact that I was doing that with friends and 
we really had a good time laughing and training. Moreover, in July I went to 
my house at the beach, in Roda de Bàra, Tarragona. Every morning we woke up, 
had breakfast and put our swimsuits on and went to the beach. Besides, every night 
I went out with my cousin and we met new people, but always wearing masks
 and keeping distance. They were two fantastic and relaxing weeks. However, 
the best part of my summer was in August when I went to my village, Casasana. 
It’s a very small town in Guadalajara, but I really love it. I was always outside and
 I only returned home to lunch, dinner and sleep. I have lots of friends there, 
both younger and older. We hung out playing cards and fooling around. I was 
also taught to play Poker and I actually love it!

 

It was a really incredible summer, despite the Covid situation. If someone
 had told me that Summer 2020 was going to be the best I’ve ever had, I 
wouldn’t have believed it.

MY GRANDMOTHER, MY REFERENCE PERSON

 

My grandmother, my reference person. (by P.N.)

What could be more wonderful than having a reference person in your life?

My grandmother was born in 1944, she got married and had three sons and three daughters.  As she lived under laws of Francisco Franco, her behaviour in all aspects of her life has been very influenced by the closed mentality of dictatorship. She always says to me that creating a family was all that her relatives expected from her. Despite of that fact, she always imagines how different her life would have been if she had lived her youth nowadays: she could have had an independent life, have worn clothes she liked, have travelled to many places and have said what she thought without fear of reprisals; in short, she would like to be the only owner of her own life. She admires the role of women in the world today and she learns and opens her mind each day. Nevertheless, she´s very grateful for having had love and health throughout her whole life and she feels happy to see us grow up as healthy, strong and good people. She's the most comprehensive, empathetic, close and friendly person I know.  

In conclusion, I adore my grandmother, it is said that all depends on perspective: the glasses with which we see reality and she has several spare glasses in order to put herself in each other's shoes and help them. She’s a wonderful woman.
