PUENTE

When a public holiday falls on a Tuesday or a Thursday, Spanish people usually take another day's holiday to make a four day “long weekend”. This is called “hacer puente” (literally “making a bridge”). Depending on the employer, this extra day may be regarded as extra to the agreed annual holidays.
