It is one of life's ironies that we started coming here in 1992 to avoid Christmas tat and hype! The theory is that in Spain it is 6th Jan that has more significance.
How things have changed!
Kids now get gifts for both occasions and the decorations go up even earlier than in Oxford Street!
These shots are of the brand new El Campanario Centre, which is still three-quarters empty in shop terms but has two conflicting loudspeaker systems aimed at the Plaza - each with carols!
Nice place for a drink if you have ear-plugs and /or like this sort of thing! That's our council tax paying for this!!! (but we did get a very nice and inclusive UNICEF card from the Mayor Claudina)
