[quote=Anonymous]For Spain. Hat. It will be hot af in southern spain next week (seville was 108 today). Encourage him to do as spaniards do and spend siesta time indoors in AC (2 pm to 8pm). Whatever you do, do not tour the alhambra / walk down the ronda gorge / row around seville’s plaza de españa in a rowboat at 4 pm in summer 🥵🥵🥵 Places with decent AC in case hostel has a “no loitering during the day time” rule: fast food restaurants, movie theaters, malls, some museums like el prado. Take high school ID, most museums offer free admission to students with Id Be cautious when at beach: many do not have lifeguards yet bc is early in season. Do not hesitate to seek medical care if they get sick—it is very affordable to go to a private ER (like 100 euros without insurance) for very quick and good service. Avoid the public ER unless directed to go there bc it will take forever unless issue is very serious. Hostel can provide advice about nearest best medical care. Every business in spain is required to take card payments regardless of price. Yes that includes 1 euro water bottles and all taxis. Lots of people use their phones to tap to pay. Maybe have a backup card in case apple pay doesn’t work (sometimes i see signs saying ‘our apple pay is down’”) Young people party all night, like they start pregaming in parks and plazas and then move to bars around 11 pm and when the bars close at 2 am they go to the clubs until 6, 7 am, then churros and chocolate before bed. To find nightlife suited to young people, go to university campus area. In seville the alameda de hercules is also popular among the youth Also ibuprofen is readily available in spain. But it comes in 400 mg tablets which is annoying for those of us used to the 200 mg tablets. Have fun! It will be a great experience for your kid! Spanish high school seniors will have just finished their super high stakes uni entrance exams so it should be a fun and festive time for their age group.[/quote]
