so, basically there are 3 different types of holidays there? puro non working holidays ba mga yan? or yung iba lang,. dito kasi there are days that are considered holidays, but still there’s school or work. weird noh? Thanks for visiting my site, a little busy these past few weeks kaya di nakaka blog hop. How are you doing?
