We missed the big Easter parade they have here in the village which supposedly includes carrying a lucky 14 year old boy strapped to the cross simulating Jesus' plight being carried behind the life sized Mary litter, also carried by many men. Our hotel sits next to the cemetery and we explored a little yesterday. All over the countryside at Easter time, relatives adorned the graves with brightly colored plastic flowers. Very pretty. The head stones ran the gamut from simple wooden crosses to more eleaborate shadow boxes.
