Grandparents' Day 2016 (Spain)
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Every year on July 26th, people across Spain take a moment to honor their grandparents, so we thought we’d take a moment too. We don’t presume to know your abuelita or abuelito, but hope whether they’re your family’s best storyteller, the source of Spain’s finest paella, or simply a cherished memory, that today’s Doodle helps bring them to mind.
Happy Grandparents’ Day to all the grandmothers and grandfathers out there!
