Quiet start to the day, with none of us yet feeling terribly "Christmassy" due to the change in our location & routines, at this time of year! While the kids were occupied, playing nicely downstairs, D&L finished their wrapping, & put the presents underneath the Xmas tree.
After a quiet afternoon, we showered & changed into our smartest clothes, & went next door to Luis & Sylvia's house for drinks & a "light" meal with Miguel (Susana's father). The kids were delighted when they received a gift (sweets & popcorn in a snowman box), as were D&L with their gift of home made sweet biscuits!
After plenty to eat (road kill squirrel!) & drink, we returned to Sylvia's house, for the opening of the family presents. J was very happy with his Swiss army knife, & M loved her DVDs & pink camera! As it was, by now, way past the kids' bedtime, & M was starting to flag, we put them to bed, then sat downstairs to eat even more food (fee range squirrel this time!), & stayed up chatting until gone 1am!
