In this blog I found called Trans-Iberian I like the writer´s observations on Spain´s extended Christmas holidays and on the Spanish concept of fiestas.
Some interesting vocabulary:
blow something (clean) out of the water: to (completely) defeat someone or destroy
someone´s ideas.
all and sundry: everyone
40-strong: forty residents in the village
élan: enthusiastic vigor or a distinctive style. (I confess I looked this one up in the dictionary)
