It started days ago. Louder than ever. I can recall back when there were no skyrockets, just the peregrinos. Why can't they be classy and just use a bell?

Okay, I exaggerate just a little. There've always been some peregrinaciones with skyrockets, but it used to be that most of the peregrinaciones had musicians instead of skyrockets and the folks sang as they marched along.

Well on a very good note: we just saw an absolutely spectacular sunset on La Ropa, which formed an amazing back-drop for a boat procession from Las Gatas. Just wonderful.
