there are always celibrations here, and today is no exception. it is much like our spring cleaning but for relegious thoughts etc... you burn all your unwanted issues-trash along with the devil so to prepare your self for the celebrated coming of jesus. so today they burn the devil to get him out of their lives so jesus has a clean welcoming place in their hearts. please understand this is not a perfect description as this is all i could understand of my translation of the language... probally much better or more eliquent from someone who can speak the language.
Then tomorrow Jesus and Mary start their journey through the village knocking on each door for you to welcome them, and bless them on their journey.
it is all very visual, i will try to take pictures but it will be dark for both.
much love to you all.
