Easter Procession

The villagers were out in force for one of many religious processions that take place during Semana Santa (Easter Holy Week). I'm not quite sure of the significance of today's display but they do take it all very seriously. Can someone tell me where pigging out on overpriced chocolate comes into all of this?

Very pleased to get a mention in the staff picks with this photo. It's the same sort of feeling I still get when I got a decent by-line in a newspaper or magazine
