holiday lights....Madrid-style










The eve before Epiphany day is a big event for children.  When it was explained to me, it reminds me of Christmas Eve or Christmas when children In the US look forward to gifts.  In this case, the Wise Men..,the Three Kings come to bring gifts 

Here in Spain, Epiphany is the end of the holiday season...a national holiday...a day to spend with family and friends.

So it is wonderful to still see holiday decorations throughout the city, especially the lighted ones.
