Everyday has a holiday feel in Colombia in certain offices Waiting in line early in the morning. I know the secretary. She lives a five minute walk away from her place of work.

The secretary, ignoring the people, talking on the telephone, says: "Hola, mami, ¿ya deayunó? Sí, ¿y qué desayunó?"

She's been away from home 15 minutes and she's checkin' in on mother to see how breakfast went.

Soon it will be time to take a break to get coffee, then "las onces".... oooops! it's lunch time. A two hour lunch.

Repeat for the afternoon. Productive time at work during the day: 47 minutes.

Its a fact Everyday in Colombia is a holiday except for one, that is the day that the preparations for the 364 holidays take place.
