last lights 2021

It’s Three Kings day, and also the last day for Christmas lights in the city. It’s a bit sad that I only got out twice to see the lights this season, but this hasn’t been like any other Christmas. On a positive note, I happened to run into King Melchor last night who assured me that in spite of the pandemic the Kings were still hard at work and would be delivering gifts to all the children and that, along with toys and smiles, they were also bringing good health, vaccines and hope to everyone this year.  🙂

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!

…aka Los Reyes Magos or Three Kings Day

This celebration typically marks the end of the festive season in Spain, though I always extend it one day more to include my birthday (natch). Last night there was the cabalgata, a parade featuring Los Reyes Magos who ride around on floats tossing sweets out to the hoards of children that line the route, and at midnight the Christmas lights were switched off. Today there will be family dinners with gifts (giving presents on Christmas Eve/Day is a relatively new practice here), then tomorrow kids go back to school and normal life begins again. Though I’m actually working today and have a biz meeting at 5 o’clock – beats just sitting around waiting for my English students to come back from their holidays.

Planned to have an epiphany today but, you know…
