A Note About A Spanish Christmas
[Una Nota De Navidad en Espana]
|
Introduction: The principle difference
between a Spanish Christmas and the Anglo Saxon version is the importance
of the 6th January. In Spain this is when presents are given and the three
"magic" kings give the presents not father Christmas. In recent years many
families have started to give their children their presents on Chistmas
Eve, although this is changing because children have to go to school on
the 7th and they don't have time to play with their presents. Most
families have a "belén" (nativity scene) on display in their house.
Families eat together on Cristmas eve and they often eat a stuffed turkey
which has the bones removed which requires the skill of a micro-surgeon to
prepare. Christmas is less commercial in Spain and the build up does not
start until much later.
