The Three Kings in Spain
The Three Kings in Spain So that the tree and its trimmings back to the attic, you have trawled tuover with a fine comb and all links are wrong pair of shoes and banana yellow coats, you probably broke at least one of your resolutions. Well, as you fancy some 'of "Groundhog Day"? Imagine if you have to do it again this weekend for Christmas! While everyone in the United Kingdom is detoxing and the search for psychiatric help, the die-hard Spanish is again on the 6th Gen. This is the feast of the Epiphany, when the Magi arrived in Bethlehem. The lucky children Spanish not just gifts from Santa, but also to the top of the sixth, to find other gifts from Los Reyes (the Kings). It 'surprising that the popularity of use of the Kings beyond the man in red overalls as processions in every city in Spanish 5. The Kings Parade in general, decorated floats throwing candy to all children waiting for their arrival enthusiasm. One might think that with a famous Turrón polverones and Christmas, the Spanish have a rest. On the contrary, this festival has met the sweet tooth with Rosco de Reyes, a biscuit-shaped cakes filled with cream. They really have their hands on the Spanish start another festival with vigor and enthusiasm. But, remember that usually enjoy life and every opportunity to celebrate and spend time with his family. The king is not just for children, here in Andalusia all age groups in the streets to take part surprises me how people tend to have a party after the other with a relaxed, yet lively attitude. I imagine that his secret is that they do not suffer from this post-Christmas feeling but anti-climax after such a large, high pressure building. You see, most shops do not actually start to drop hints in December and is always a lucky glimpse of Santa Claus. They manage to create a healthy balance to enjoy Christmas for what it is, even if not in a way that his life penetrate months in advance. Christmas in a way quite similar to the generations before them, in relation to what they eat and how they celebrate. Traditions, but people do not key on Schön Jamie Oliver's recipes and hire interior designers to decorate their tables with the "problems". Although I admire your ability to enjoy themselves, and their attention to the religious dimension of Christmas, I did not really want to see it in recent years, the celebrations for the new year. Despite living in Spain, the new year for me is a time for a new beginning, with a clear mind, body and home. However, this does not mean that it is not the diet for the day of Rosco de Reyes!
