I can't wait to have been here long enough to get the scoop from the true locals. We've been mostly dry this week and caught the Good Friday procession last night. It was as you described, but only 90 minutes from when the Romans passed us to the end of the procession. I heard the band finishing up around midnight, though. A much smaller affair than what you have in Seville! Because I'm still pretty disconnected from the community and unsure where to get resources, I did not catch everything going on this week, but was glad to get last night! I resurrected (get it?) a lot of my latent Catholic education to explain the story unfolding on the pasos.

Yess so glad you got to experience it, and resurrect hidden knowledge ;)
Would love to see this!
