SATURDAY 26TH NOVEMBER

I’d suggest visiting A Coruña, a nice town on the NW coast, about 65 km from Santiago, where we can easily get by train. It has quite an important Roman heritage, a medieval town and, besides, a lively commercial activity (just in case you want to go shopping). A group of Spanish teachers could go with you, if you wish.

SUNDAY 26TH NOVEMBER

In Padrón you can find the most important open air market in the area. If it’s sunny, it’s really interesting. Some of us could go with you, if you wish.

Problem with surveys in the forum.

Marta told me to solve a problem about the survey in the forum: many people couldn't vote on surveys.

I think I found out what the problem was:
when you want to vote in a survey, you don't have to open the page of the results before voting. You first have to vote and then you will see the results of voting.

The system considers this action (to see the results) as a vote.

It's really strange and I don't know why, but it is true.
