Very peaceful. I moved to Spain and thus eliminated the Christmas craziness.

Not really. Nothing like in North America. They concentrate on the religious side of it with many lovely nativity displays. The big deal is January 6th which is Kings Day. That's when the Three Kings bring gifts for the children. (not Santa Claus) There is always a parade of course.

I don't mind the roosters. In fact, they make me laugh, for some reason. That last one got his licks in.

Did I see TONTON in the beginning moving plenty quick? You'll love this, Cecilia: I'm dog-sitting for my nephew and family who are in Australia and New Zealand. Lucky them!

Perfect time of year to visit that side of the world!! The irony! Hope they get down to Hawkes Bay!
