Semana Santa na

Today is Palm Sunday. And we're in for Holy Week. Here are some pictures I managed to take during this morning's mass at the Cathedral.

Palms instead of flowers served as decoration for the retablo area.

The faithful with their palms as they wait for Fr. Marcelo Tubac for the blessing.

And then, there was this old lady who did not have any palm branch to be blessed. What did she have? As far as I can remember she opened her small black purse in time for the sprinkling of holy water. Well, whatever is in that purse.

And where the crowds are, expect the entrepreneurs to be there. Like these guys selling motorcycle seat cover (pix above) and bottled iced tea (pix below).
