More Images from Las Fiestas Populares in our Village
Fiesta Band and Followers
One of several bands at the fiesta. This particular band was the first to arrive, complete with a ‘rocket man’, who held fireworks in a container in his hands and set them off with a loud Bang! Great to watch (if a little worrying ….), but it scared our dogs so much we had to take them indoors - hence no pictures of ‘the rocket man’.
Waiting for the Procesion
The Procesion en Honor a Nuestra Senora la Vigen del Rosario took place on Saturday, after the last of the childrens’ events of the day. These villagers were making sure they had a good place to watch the start. However, they had some time to wait ….
Still Waiting for the Procession ……
The Procession actually began at 10pm ……
Representation of La Virgen del Rosario
The procession wound its way up the streets of the village.
Accompanied by the villagers.
It’s a steep climb to the top of our village, but stragglers were encouraged to keep up.
Some found the climb a little too much ….
But la Banda de Musica kept in tune very well …..
