Semana Santa in Granada

Because we were in Granada during Semana Santa, we got to see a processional.  We were late arriving to the route that we knew it would be on, so I worried that we wouldn't get to see it.  However, these things move so slowly that I had no reason to worry.  But it was pretty cool.



Several men carry these large and heavy statues of Mary and Jesus.  The move slowly but sometimes go very quickly in time to the music.



We finally stopped watching and went to dinner.  The processional was still in progress when we were done - at least 6 hours after it had started!
