Post by Charlie: On Good Friday there was a parade at 7:30pm and a procession at 10pm. We missed the later one but we went to the parade. We had a map of the route from the tourist office. We got there a few minutes late and it seemed they were going the wrong direction. Then they looped around and we thought they would just reverse the route but then they switched again and they stopped for 10 minutes and there was a lot of back and forth conversing. We suspect that they messed up the route and were not sure how to correct it. It is hard to turn a long parade. There were barricades and people along the other route where they should have been. Finally they just decided to go with the mistake.
First came the romans on horses, note that the cafe patrons had a great view.
Then the drummers and pipers, then the Roman soldiers:
Then the people in pointed hats and robes
Do you suppose the Roman Empire fell because of confusion about directions???
