Gorgeous weather at Easter!

Hi there! Welcome back! After such a long holiday, one feels a bit curious about what people did with their time-off; especially with that gorgeous weather which seemed to push you outdoors. Here is my Easter post! I have been to Madrid for the holiday. I went with my family and we stayed in a hotel near the centre. We were there for three days. We travelled around the city by underground; we saw the so-called "Puerta del Sol" and we visited several museums. We also saw some lovely parks and, of course, we enjoyed walking along the famous streets, such as Alcala Street or "La Castellana". We ate the traditional "churros", they are delicious! Now we are ready to go on with the year :)

3. Do you know any English traditions?

The clocks go forward on 30 March!

WHEN DO THE CLOCKS CHANGE?

In the UK the clocks go forward 1 hour at 1am on the last Sunday in March, and back 1 hour at 2am on the last Sunday in October.

The period when the clocks are 1 hour ahead is called British Summer Time (BST). There's more daylight in the evenings and less in the mornings (sometimes called Daylight Saving Time).

When the clocks go back one hour at 02:00 on the last Sunday in October., the UK is on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
