F Thinking back six years to pl the last Christmas in his native of Spain, Odilo Blanco said, "In my country Christmas is more for the family." He went on b< to explain that the religious t} meaning of the holiday is not t} marred by commercialism or s} profit making. Christmas trees tc are rarely seen and home decor- pl ations do not usually go beyond ti, a small Nativity scene. ff Also, Spanish children receive ti their presents from the Magi E instead of Santa, Blanco added.
