Same same but different: Christmas

We are back this month with another illustration of funny differences: same action, different people! :christmas_tree::gift:

I am sure we can find more differences: who brings the presents in your country and when?

In Spain we normally have to wait until the morning of Jan 6th! We wait for the “Tres Reyes Magos” (Three Wise Men) to bring us presents. It’s also true that some families have adopted the tradition of having presents on the 25th.
Some lucky ones may get presents both on the 25th and on Jan 6th. Not me!! :frowning:

In France many families wait for the morning of the 25th (the Père Noël comes to the house during the night) but some open them on the 24th because they have family around for the Réveillon (the Christmas’ eve meal) and want to open them with everyone !
