Sinterklaas!!

Today it's Sinterklaasavond!
(St. Nicholas Eve)

Tonight Sinterklaas will bring us presents and we'll be celebrating Sinterklaasavond with lots of yummy food and by unwrapping the presents of course.

Here's some links for those unfamiliar with Sinterklaas:

No, Sinterklaas is Santa's older brother. They're not the same.

I hope you get some good stuff like chocolate coins. :)

Ahhhhhhh, thank you!!!!! He is not known in Spain. We know Santa, and we celebrate Xmas with him and after, at 6th of January the "Three Kings", or "Three Wise Men" come to our homes to bring many gifts to children (and not so children hehehe).
Kisses and thanks for the explanation :)
