On Thursday I went to the parade for the Hermandad de los Negritos which was founded in the 1300's to help Africans in Spain. Our friend Corro's grandfather is now the oldest brother of the brotherhood so it was a really big deal for his family and they walk alongside the floats for 10 1/2 hours. Juan's family also belongs to the same brotherhood so they were there as well.
Some of the Nazarenos
Baby nazareno with caramelos to give to the crowd
The singer for the Salida who sang an a capella
El Cristo de la Fundacion, 1622
The book of rules for Los Negritos
Juan's dad preparing to throw rose petals onto the float of the Virgen de los Angeles
The petals being thrown as the Virgen emerges from Capilla de los Angeles
Virgen de los Angeles, 17th Century
Juan, Brittany and Corro
Brittany, Corro and me
Some local Sevillanas with their mantillas
