We went down to join in the fiesta celebrations yesterday - the procession starts from the church and goes up to the Ermita de San Sebastian, solemn music going up, followed by fireworks, happy music coming back down.
Then it's time for food, this year they cooked a pork casserole with patatas al pobre (poor mans potatoes) potatoes, onions, garlic and peppers cooked slowly in olive oil, there were also 2 stalls selling a variety of cakes and sweets. In the salon were the usual array of soft drinks, jugs of beer and wine - just help yourself.
As we arrived so did a car and horsebox with 2 horses, shortly afterwards about 20 or so more horses and riders came - from Ugijar we think - about a 10 minute drive away. They put a string across the street, hung curled ribbons from it then the riders had to try and hook the ribbons using a tiny stick as they rode up.
It's all here, thanks to John lots of video and photo editing this morning :)
Enjoy.
