Thousands of children and adults enjoy Santa's visit to La Nadala

For 3 hours, Father Christmas greeted and collected the letters of all the boys and girls who visited the magical gardens of the Barbera estate.

The Barbera estate welcomed thousands of children and adults yesterday who enjoyed Santa's visit at Nadala. Father Christmas arrived in La Barbera after going through the Colom and Barranquet streets in a spectacular parade enlivened by the Els Valerios gang of sheremiters and tabaleteers. Father Christmas has paraded on a cart, carrying the mailbox, pulled by a horse and the entourage has been accompanied by elves, children's characters and inflatable robots.
 
Arriving in front of the Barbera house museum, Mayor Marcos Zaragoza was greeted by Father Christmas, while a castle of fireworks and a shower of confetti exploded. Father Christmas attended to each child over the course of 3 hours in his rooms in the gardens of Casa de la Barbera, which have become a magical garden, with music and artificial snow. Thousands of children and adults have enjoyed the visit, handing over the letter of gifts to Father Christmas with whom they have been able to take pictures. After the meeting with Father Christmas, the attendees walked through the gardens of the house, decorated with lights and motifs of Christmas fantasy decoration, at the end of which Santa's horse rested. To endure the wait, hot chocolate was served to all attendees.
 
Father Christmas has also visited La Cala. After a children's party with music in Plaça de l'Àfora, Father Christmas has arrived in his sleigh and has been greeting and collecting each of the letters that the children have given him. This meeting has been organized jointly by the Festes departments of the Vila Joiosa and Finestrat town councils. Just like on the 5th, the Magi will arrive in La Cala and tour its streets with their royal cavalcade, also organised by the two councils.
