Three Kings Day

This morning, as a wonderful gesture of support and encouragement and to celebrate Three Kings Day, fifty people from local churches bought presents for the 50 kids on the ship. Tonight, the Three Kings (of Biblical fame) will arrive in Santa Cruz by helicopter, and then process around the town before presenting gifts to baby Jesus in the Plaza de la Candelaria. Then there will be a big firework display. Tomorrow the Spanish will celebrate Three Kings Day, and give gifts to each other representing the gifts the real Kings gave to the real baby Jesus all those years ago. For the Spanish this is considered to be an even bigger festival than Christmas Day. Do you think that someone should tell them that there weren't necessarily three kings? Olly
