Of course. I think most foreigners don't believe that Spaniards are SLEEPING during those 3-hours of "break". If they're lucky and live close to where they work they might take a 15-minute nap but the rest of the time they're doing things. But since MOST Spaniards don't live anywhere close to where they work they might take a nice, long, 2-hour lunch and talk with friends or co-workers over the restaurant dining table.

Funny you mention Lunch. The intern from Madrid, was shock about how we have lunch at our office.
For some background I work for a large Wall Street firm in the operational areas of the firm.
Anyway she was shocked that we have lunch at our desks and it is so short. Most people around the office do not take a hour for lunch. I will take a hour only if I go for a walk when the weather is nice.
I wonder how long this two hour lunch will last in a world that is getting smaller, connected to each other and there are people who are will to work longer for less money.
