Lots of incense and people.


Float. Enormous and, although you can't tell, being supported by about 40 women on their shoulders.


The first float, Jesus coming off the cross... 3 floats or so later "Santa Muerte."

Me in front of the cathedral.

Lovely "alfombra" that was eventually walked thru by the entire procession then swept up into a garbage truck.

The floats before this one were ones of Jesus dying, being put into a coffin of sorts. Then finally "Santa Muerte" shows up. It was pretty ominous and didn't fit with the more "romantic" floats.

The garbage pick-up trailing the procession.

While out today we bought baby clothes! These are the official second & third pieces of babywear we have accumulated. We got both for under $1 in the "paca," er 2nd hand clothing market. Aawwwww... they are tiny!!

And finally, because she's so darn lazy and cute. Here's Norma from the other day. This dog knows exactly what a pillow is and where to put her head.
