2018-05-24 Sainte Sara Noir

They say a picture tells a 1000 words. There is no way to describe the scene and the day, therefore:

Men dance and drink
Chica's party all day with their families
Little Chica shoes and Crazy Antonio
Everyone dances. Many dress for the occasion

Audience participation is encouraged

Even the waitress dances - wait for your beer!
The guardians arrive on their horses for the procession
Caty and Elena sit in the sun all day
Kids with guitars join in
The waitress smokes, serves beer and dances
See, I told you. Ole!
The processional has it's own security force
The guardians lead the way. The Church is in the background
Saint Sara Noir arrives, held high above the heads of the crowds
Waiting for the processional at the beach
The guardians waiting for Sara in the water
The Black Sara arrives for the blessing
Sandy, hot, tired and wet. Ready for more!
