December 12 was the anniversary of the Virgen de Guadalupe's appearance to the Indian Juan Diego. In East Austin a long procession was held in honor of that anniversary. Hundreds and hundreds of people participated, despite the gloomy weather. I was lucky to run into them late in the morning, I thought surely the celebration would be over by the time I drove to that side of town (when I was kid, our procession happened at six in the morning), but there they were, still making their long trek to Our Lady of Guadalupe church. I shot tons of pictures.
