Christmas in Tossa

On Sunday afternoon (the day after Christmas) we went with the Js up to Tossa de Mar to see the live nativity presentation. It was a very fun event. You enter the old walled city with a young guide in period dress and walk from a marketplace, through the ancient streets, past the Roman guards and shepherds fields, finally arriving at the stable. Most of the structures date from the 12th and 13th century.
