Parade

At last! Todd kindly uploaded my photos for me, since our internet connection wasn't strong enough to allow loading from the apartment (or the park outside our apartment, to be more accurate). So here are some photos from the parade at Festes de la Merce last weekend. The 10-year-old kids are apparently the ones who play devils and run with fire. It was fascinating to see, and it would never fly in the U.S. due to safety and legal concerns. But there's a lot of other stuff here that would never fly, too, and that's what makes it fun.
