This man is making an 'alfombra', a carpet of colored sawdust, on the pavement.
This alfombra was made of pine needles and fresh flowers. These beautiful carpets only last a short time, until the people in the procession walk over them.
Some of the men in the procession wore red peaked hats and carried signs with religious scenes. Men in purple robes carried burning incense.
Approximately 100 men in purple robes carried this huge float depicting Jesus carrying his cross.
Maria and Tony enjoyed playing with the little puppets I bought from a street vendor.
