Sleep in the afternoon is siesta. In Spain people stay up late; Spanish Opera or operetta and other entertainment begins late in the evening after people have had fun with drinks and tapas and good food. Naturally, the Spanish start work fairly late, and break for lunch in the afternoon, following which they go home, or at least to bed, and relax for quite a long time. Later they arise and make their way back to work, where they get through various activities in the cool of the late afternoon and early evening. Some time later they leave the workplace in order to revisit the tapas and drinks and, if they're in the mood, various kinds of entertainment. Try to tell them they've got it wrong. I wouldn't dare.
