Baltazar



In Spain, Santa Clause doesn't bring presents on the night of the 24th like in the States, but rather the children must wait until the night before the wise kings safely returned home from the journey. They officially made it back to their hometowns on January 6th, so when the children wake up on that day they are surprised with lots of goodies that the wise kings left them.

Instead of the children sitting on Santa Clause's lap in the shopping malls, they tell one of the wise kings (Baltazar) what they want.
