Photo: "Holy week" parade in Barcelona

For an amusing photo click here.
[Like the costumes? (They look somehow familiar, don’t they?)]

I've never been in Spain during Easter.

Do the Catalans / Barcelonins go in for it like the Andalucians or is it quite low-key?

Looking forward to the clasico tomorrow.....

Thanks for the comment. Yeah, I think that here it's mainly a family time, like most holidays. Church attendance is lower in Catalonia than anywhere else in Spain I believe. The clasico should be, well, a classic! They are almost always excellent games. Who can stop Messi? Real Madrid? I doubt it!
