Today is traditionally the day when Los Reyes Magos (the magic kings, or three wise men) bring gifts to the children of all ages in Spain. But this year my gifts came by Magic Sled… love them!

Everybody I’ve met this past week on my tapas tours has mentioned The Oranges. They are just so plentiful and, well, orange! I remember my first Christmas here in Sevilla and being struck at how wonderful it was that all the oranges were like natural festive ornaments on the trees that were enhanced with pretty white fairy lights (those were the days – these days they use blue lights that aren’t nearly as lovely). Anyhow, loved this moment coming home after my lunchtime tapas tour on Christmas day, after the rain had stopped.

My Sevilla Tapas Tours are never the same. People are always different and bring their own unique qualities to the group dynamic, food preferences vary, travel and life experiences are shared… and every now and then there are peacocks. These guys were spotted between tapas bars along the outer walls of the Alcázar palace gardens.
During the night my annual Christmas Cold arrived and I have spent the day inside shivering and sniffling. But now duty calls and I’m heading out to meet five friends to take them on a nice tapeo. Tomorrow is a day off!
