On the day before Christmas the grandfather of the Famous Big Family takes the children to the Santa Llúcia fair.
The younger ones are really exited. It's the first time they go to a such magic place!
Here they can have a ride on a Cagatió
find wonderful figures for the Nativity scene
decorations for their home
and of course, a big christmas tree!
They can also learn to play the Zambomba
and even admire the subtile catalan caganers style
After so many emotions, Chencho, the younger of them, stops to have a little rest in a very cozy little place...he's so tired, that he fells asleep
Meanwhile, grandpa is counting the children... There's one missing!!!
Chencho! Chencho! Where are you!?!
Oh my God, we have to find him!
Chencho! Chencho! Where are you!?!
But this is such a big place, and it's full of people! it's going to be very difficult!
They ask everywhere, but nobody has seen him!
While the faithful Luisa prays to God for Cencho...
Crispulo meets Santa and asks for help to find him
They have tried everything, but they cannot find him!!!
They have to go back home to tell to their parents!
When Chencho wakes up, he cannot see his grandpa or any of his brothers...
He walks for hours among the crowd, but he cannot find them... He's lost!!!
But suddennly, he sees a ridiculous fat man dressed in red like Santaclaus...
The man tells Chencho that he's not the real Santa.
He's just a TV showman, working for a big department store to earn some extra money!
But anyway he'll try to help him...
On the Christmas morning, the mother enters the children's room and sees a big parcel on Chencho's bed!
OHHH -she shouts- everybody wake up!
They open the parcel... and they find Chencho inside it!
They are so happy! This is the best Christmas present ever!
While Luisa and the nun sister pray God to thank him for the return of his brother...
Crispulo remember his talk with Santa and thinks that it's the big red guy who has brought his brother back home...
Only Chencho, the only really rational member of the Big Family, knows that it's not thanks to God or Santa...
Don't you know that Santa doesn't work in the South?
It's too hot for the reindeers!!!
It's too hot for the reindeers!!!
