Xmas Toy Collection in the Church Square

The request for donations of toys and games etc for the needy families of Lloret it seems went well yesterday judging by the amount of boxes we saw. All the items collected will be given out by the Red Cross to children in the town in time for the 'Dia de Los Reyes' (6th Jan) the day when most Spanish children will receive their Christmas presents from the 3 Kings. 

 

 

In the church square the excited children were busy making  lanterns and writing out their wishes of what they would like to receive. One of the 3 Kings was due to arrive at 5.30pm when he would meet the children and take their letters...just like taking the kids to see Father Christmas in the UK.
