24th December: Christmas Eve: In Spain, like in many parts of the world, we practise two typical traditions: we have a big family dinner with all the members of the family: grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, etc. and some people also attend the midnight mass at the church. The dinner is usually huge with lots of food and drink, specially "cava" (the Catalan champagne) and "turrons" (traditional Christmas cakes made from almonds and sugar).
