March 20 - Holy Week Preparations.

Holy Week is obviously much bigger than back home. Over the past three weeks, workers have been busy installing viewing stands and guardrails in preparation for the Holy week processions. During the week, the different churches hold processions that travel to the Cathedral and back. Included in the processing are floats (called Pasos) that weigh more than 2,000 pounds that are carried along the procession route. A group of men position themselves under the Paso to carry it. Being under the Paso, they cannot see whare they are going so there is someone beside the Paso to guide them.

 


San Francisco Square three weeks ago.


The same square now.




Some of the Pasos to be used in the processions.





A very interesting picture. As you get closed, you get a different view.




Last flower picture of our trip.


Never seen a motorcycle with whitewall tires before.
