La Patrona de la Virgen de San Angustias







La Virgen de San Angustias is one of the patron saints of Granada, and the celebration was two weeks ago. In the evening and thoughout the night, people bring flowers to the cathedral where they are hung on big things, kind of like scaffolding up against the wall of the church. There were millions of flowers, and the line of people waiting to bring flowers to the church was insanely long, even in the rain. There is music and marching bands, and many, many people. It was a neat thing to see. Sadly, I was soaked because it had been raining very hard, and I was without a paraguas. Bummer, but very beautiful.
