At this time of the year many of us would say "Feliz Navidad" - Of course this, unfortunately, seems to cause offence to some narrow minded people.

Y en México, dicen "¡Felices Fiestas!" con frecuéncia.

Eso es porque hay una fiesta virtualmente cada día.

¡Que maravilloso!

What about if you were going on your annual holidays for two weeks?

It's a bit odd, actually, since "holidays" derives from "holy days" and dates to periods when there was no such thing as "a vacation" . - samdie, Dec 17, 2009
