Terrible weather. Lots of rain, but at least it’s snowing in the mountains. Tonight is Reyes, the main event for Christmas here. Christmas Eve is just a warm up; the real presents come today. They are brought to the village by the three kings, or Magi, with a procession of pages, drummers, fire breathers, etc.

This year the streets seemed empty until the trailer with the presents arrived, followed by hundreds of kids. I didn’t know we had so many youngsters in the village! It’s a really nice atmosphere because the young people who don’t have children are part of the procession and as they remember the excitement of their own childhood they try to make it special for the next generation.

See photos of today.
