Easter Meal & New Years

 April 6
Sharing a traditional meal with friends. 



The soup called Fanesca is prepared once a year during Easter week.  Pictured below: fried Covina (Bass), and rice with onion and tomato salad.

New Years
It's celebrated by burning effigies.  They are sold on almost every corner and can range from a simple headless stuffed form, to all kinds of fancy images.


 Getting ready to light some fires.

The whole city shuts down and fires are burning in the streets.  If you are driving around though, you might get stopped  by some strangely dressed guys and have to pay some change to go on by.
