Anything Goes Monday: The Christmas Countdown
It´s exactly nine days before Christmas as I post this!
In here, I know that Christmas is just around the corner when:
1. You see caganers(caganets in Spanish) in all of the knick knack stores and Christmas street fairs in Catalonia. Yep, the Catalonians have a weird sense ofhumor tradition and don´t ask me what a caganer means but you can read about it here. ;)
2. Aside from Christmas trees, you can also see the ¨belen¨ aka the Christmas Village (Spanish style) in most Spanish homes and in stores. The bigger and more elaborate( meaning the figurines move) the better it is and they are the biggest crowd drawer for children and oldies alike!
Every figurine in this Nativity scene moves and they´re quite mesmerizing to watch.
3. The shopping bags. I think they're ubiquitous during this time of the year and you see them in almost every arm of every one you meet on the street! Here´s mine for a friend and I was juggling this while visiting the port of Vilanova in Barcelona all day long, hahaha!
So how are you doing with your Christmas countdown? ;)
Kisses,
Che
