Noche blanca
Hoy es la noche blanca en Madrid. It's this 'newfangled' thing that we've been having for the past three years, I would say. I'd really love it if my kids were older or my Mum offered to babysit, but she usually prefers having the 'children' on Sunday. Typically, I learned about it from an American friend who's been an ex-pat for years and who told me exactly a year ago.
Do you know what I'm talking about? Google away, guys. But I'm sure Sosia can give you a textbook explanation. ( I used this smilie because I couldn't think of any possible combination to express jealousy) Well, I guess the green does the trick.

Hmmm, encontré referencias a "noche blanca" y "noche en blanco" en internet. Lo que encontré de noche blanca fue que es una fiesta en Roma el 8 de septiembre. Así que me quedo un poco

In really, I don't arrive understand you, because the word Noche Blanca is used in my country as Night Christmas, then the White night is Christmas, but at least I heard this in my country, I don't know how the people called the white night referring to other meaning about it, and I have a question for you, you comment in your last post that your mun or mother that lastly it's the same, then your mun offered you as babysit or you was a babysit before in your youthfulness, in really, I continue very confuse about it, then if you can explain me of a better way, I'll be glad for you.
Have a good weekend.

Noche blanca ó noche en blanco: An all-night event made in Madrid, one night a year.
Lots of street performance (I think near 300 differents) and all the museums open & free till 2 in the morning. It's rather common in other european capitals. Saludos PD: "pasar la noche en blanco" means not to capable of sleep all night.

No me extraña. Es que te lo dije mal. Es la noche en blanco, no la noche blanca.

Mary, I'm sorry if I don't understand you but still I don't understand a lot word in the English and I got it this in your last post if I'm in a mistake please correct to me.
'newfangled' thing that we've been having for the past three years, I would say. I'd really love it if my kids were older or my Mum offered to babysit, but she usually prefers having the 'children' on Sunday There in that text I got it that your mun offered as babysit (Niñera) and that you have had for three yeas ago in some thing newfangled that I don't understand as well, at least I tried of understand you, I'm sorry.

I saw a little bit about it on TVE internacional. Madrid was open all night, and there were life presentations throughout the city. Principal buildings were lit up in innovative ways, and the Prado was open late. It must have been wonderful!
