Los Reyes de Hoy, Day of the Kings

Today in Spain and some countries in Europe and Latin America is "Three Kings Day",the day that the 3 kings enter Bethlehem. This is a tradition that emerged from the European continent and has adopted its own personality according to the customs of each country. The Niñito Jesusito's have been displayed in the houses and carried to church since Christmas. Today is the last fiesta and then they will be taken and put away till next year. These images were taken from the party across the street.The fiesta started at 1pm and was still going 11pm. I also added images from the same celebration party 2 years ago, 2010
