We're really enjoying the build-up to Christmas in a different country with a different culture and traditions. The nativity scenes on display are amazing - not just a few figures in a crib but a complete model village. The camp site staff here spent ages building a wonderful nativity scene which is now on display near the entrance. A couple of days ago we went to Torrevieja to see another one that we had heard about. It's in a square outside a church (which is also beautifully decorated) and the detail is quite incredible.
It depicts every scene from the story of Jesus' birth - beginning
with the angel Gabriel visiting Mary through to his birth and the events of his early life. I'm not sure if the pictures do it justice but I've tried to include some to show the scale of it and others to show the detail, and one of the church as well.
