"When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshipped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold and of incense and of myrrh." Matthew 2:10-11

 On this Epiphany...

"Dia de los Reyes"...

3 Kings Day...

or Twelfth Night...

the star,

and three very wise men,
are at the center of it all.

In Germany, Austria and Bavaria...

there will be Star Singers...

shown in this great photo and an explanation of the customs...

at another blog here.

My son, the movie man, will snicker at this video taken of the Eiffel Tower...

but hey...

my learning curve is more like an 18-wheeler making a 90° turn onto a skinny two lane street...

slow and...

well...

a bit scary for all involved.

Nevertheless,

fresh memories of Paris,

with its many lights,

seems a perfect fit for today.

Happy Weekend!
