route to the start of the parade |

The
Romeria is a religious pilgramage that the men make each year and
this parade
is supposed to be the return to the home
town - The larger
romerio's consist of a procession of horse and tractor towed decorated
caravans. I think that Arroyo de la Miel has only "pretended" to have
been away! |

The
girls hitch a ride |
|
The
party atmosphere is enhanced with a little drink |
|
or
two! |
|
keep
the dressing up simple |
|
and
the Saints transport is far simpler than the elaborate Santa Semana floats |
|
A
pause outside the church where sherry is served in a theatrical manner |

After
a drink or two Granddad like a cigarette |
