Where I live, Easter and Holy Week are the biggest weeks of the year. It's such a cultural experience each year for us that I really love it! Here are some pictures of Antigua this time of year. I love the sawdust carpets (yes, folks, that is colored sawdust that they use to make those incredible carpets all over the streets of Antigua! Also, I love the costumes and pageantry. It's really an incredible sight. On Easter Sunday, there is the final procession proclaiming Jesus' resurrection from the dead. That's a great one! The music is happy and joyful and the people rejoice in the streets. It's fun!

New to your blog. Found you today through WTM forums. Looking forward to visiting in the future!
I was lucky enough to travel to your fair city way back in 1990. We saw one of the Easter festivals, it was amazing. You live in an amazing city and a beautiful country. I hope to return one day with my my family.
