fairs are made these days to promote sales of various products and items that people buy as Christmas gift on Dec. 25, and for the Epiphany on 6 January. This was the fair of La Laguna which was located in the Plaza del Adelantado. 
And in this other photo see the area of \u200b\u200bLa Plaza del Principe, in Santa Cruz, where exhibitions are mounted every year around this time, so that everyone can buy your gifts at a moderate price. 
And these two traditions, gifts at Christmas and current kings-and mind are mixed and made one or other or both, according to the custom adopted by different families and monetary possibilities held; in different parts of the world. 
Customs will nourish social relations between different ethnic groups and peoples, which today, with the rise of emigration and immigration, is giving in all parts of the globe, giving you the opportunity to choose which is the one host in the family. Photo from the Santa Cruz Trail, where you can more easily appreciate the ethnic differences that exist in this small island. Locals on the island on Sunday took the opportunity to get gifts more expensive than in stores is a possibility that has, in these times of economic crisis. 
Now, this year 2010 with the situation finacieras per capita has decreased the cost per person and family, but as the saying always be more! and the tradition of giving is not lost, but undermine something always make the effort. This is why the streets are filled with people, visiting stores and looking for what they need for their respective year-end gifts and Christmas. In this picture you can see the Easter flowers in two colors, always around this time adorned the gardens of all cities. Close to the Plaza del Principe in Santa Cruz. 
one year is expected to perform this illusion and all according to their possibilities des adjusting the budget to go to have that taste. But unfortunately a part of the population, which has been hardest hit by the strike, have been seen black this year to do so. On the Square España en Santa Cruz. 
Y nos queda pedirle a Dios que este año, que ya ha entrado, sea lleno de Salud, Trabajo, Ilusiones, Sueños realizados, Paz, Armonía y AMOR y con todos estos ingredientes por supuesto que estará cargado de Felicidad, ¿ no creen?. esperemos.... Un abrazo fuerte y....
