When we took part in this 2 years ago I remember saying that I would never have believed we would be part of a candlelit procession walking through a medieval Spanish village. But here we are again and it is just one of the many different experiences we have been part of since we came here.
In Spain, children receive some presents on Christmas day but the big time to receive present is from the 3 Kings on the 5th January and this takes place after the arrival of the Kings to the church and then the procession to the hall which is part of the bar/restaurant.
The 3 Kings and their pages are on a raised platform and as the page calls out the name of the child, or adult, they go up the steps to collect their present. By the way, the black King seated in the middle is Floyd!
