Traditionally this is when the kings bring gifts for children, keeping Christmas and gift-giving more separate. Instead of hot chocolate and cookies for Santa and his reindeer, many children leave a (more Spanish) snack for the kings and for their camels. School (finally) starts next Monday, and I&#8217;m eager to get back into my normal work schedule.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Look of the Day <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been cold here and I&#8217;m thinking about layers.
