All day shopping for presents with my parents. In Spain the big day is not as much Xmas as the Epiphany for presents. Xmas is for minor presents, but the big deal is the Epiphany, known as "Los Reyes Magos" in Spanish, or "Els Reis Mags" in Catalan.

The Christian feast of the Epiphany is referred to as ´Los Reyes Magos,´ in Spain, which literally translates as ´The Magician Kings´ ... referring to the three wise men from the East who paid homage to the infant Jesus.
