We live in Spain and yesterday we decided to spend the night in Malaga, about an hour from our house, so we watch their Christmas light displays. Besides the usual electric Christmas trees

They have one large section of a neighborhood made up to look like a Cathedral. It's huge.

Unlike the USA, Spaniards aren't afraid to put religious symbols on public property. The inside of the street cathedral had "stained glass windows" with nativity scenes.

Even the traffic roundabouts have Nativity scenes in the middle. This is all through the town, which is why you can make a night of it.

Twice a night the Cathedral erupts in a display of lights and music. You can see what it's like here. My wife made a pretty good recording of it but the ending was cut off. This is a Youtube video.

We hope you all have a safe and Merry Christmas.
