The first weekend in December coincides with a public holiday to celebrate Constitution Day in Spain and there was plenty of opportunity to start our Christmas shopping with a Craft Fair at the Marriott hotel in Denia, a Fira de Nadal in the streets of Orba organised by local businesses to advertise their wares and to celebrate the start of the Christmas season and a Medieval Market in the streets of Denia old town

Mmm - what lovely hands you've got! Hello little donkey! What big ears you've got! In Orba, there were some wonderful donkeys on display, along with the magnificent horses from the local Pereto equestrian centre and some cute little Shetland ponies.
