Cope in Spain
Among Spaniards, lunch time is usually between 13 and 14:30, while dinner time is around 21. However, in special celebrations, lunch can be delayed up until 15 in some cases, while dinners can even be as late as 22. Almost all businesses close between 14:30 and 17:00, so plan your shopping and sight-seeing accordingly. Shopping malls and supermarkets, however, are usually open from 9:30 to 22:00 and there are several 24h shops usually owned by Chinese and Vietnamese inmigrants.
Spanish cities can be noisy in some areas. Be warned.
Some brands you may be used to in the US are not available in Spain: Blend-a-Med toothpaste or Dirol (Stimorol chewing gum has been available for years) Bring in enough for your whole trip if you can't live without it. But Spanish and other European brands are of good quality. Brands like Colgate and Orbit are very extended.
