Natasha Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Kids went to school this a.m. so guessing tianguis will be in full swing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pappysmarket Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 No, schools are open, banks are open, it's not a Dia Nacional, that was yesterday. Next year on a Tuesday so expect a 4 day puente. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously doubt that there will be a 4-day puente; the holiday will be Saturday-Sunday-Monday and back to work on Tuesday the 17th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pappysmarket Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Thanks, one of my Mexican friends was saying next year it falls on a Tuesday and he was looking forward to a 4 day puente. By now should have known that my Mexican friends are, how can I say, not real good with the calendar, (nor the clock for that matter). I should have confirmed that before posting. Thanks for the correction. Also, if I had my brain engaged I would have realized this year was not a Leap Year, not evenly divisable by 4, and that therefore next year the dates would only advance by one day of the week.

Your making it sound very complicated. The short answer is regardless the dates etc these vendors need to make a living 7/52 ...we are the folks on holiday and "they" hope "we" will flock in greater numbers to buy baby, buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The short answer is if today, Sept. 18 is a Tuesday then next year it will be on a Wednesday, unless the current year is a Leap Year in which case it would be on a Thursday. Not very complicated at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
