Good Friday March 25, 2016
At 9:15 it was 28C, heading to 34C (for 3 days too). The Colombians are complaining louder than me!
We made a mistake in guessing the time of the Good Friday processions, but some skilful questioning allowed us to catch the Good Friday procession near the end.
The Good Friday celebrations here are about 1/10th the size of those in Ecuador, as this country is not nearly as Catholic.
We then went to another main church but it was long over there.
Happy Easter.
I hope you enjoy the photos. That was the day's
excitement, Cheers,
Al

| Yup, the heat is getting to the dogs too. |
 |
| This church was awaiting the crowds |
 |
| Too hot for these to join the procession |
 |
| I like the steeple(s) |
 |
| We caught up to the procession 2 blocks away |
 |
| A few people |
 |
| About 6 statues being carried |
 |
| The carriers are in the colored robes |
 |
| Nice statues, in good shape |
 |
| I like this one representing the crucifixion |
 |
| Good Friday personified |
 |
| Heading to the church |
 |
| A little artistic licence |
 |
| I eliminated a lot od wires in this one |
 |
| My shot of the day |
 |
| Making it into the church |
 |
| All the people are happy to get cooler |
 |
| All the statues come in |
 |
| Jesus comes in last |
 |
| Standing room only, not a big church |
 |
| Nothing happening at this other church |
 |
| They were closing the doors on us |
