the church in the neighborhood (Colonia Guadalupe) where Billy's studio is located.Walking home from the studio on Monday, we stopped by Bonanza (the super-market we go to) for a few things. Coming out of the store and heading up towards our hill, there was a commotion in the street, a crowd was gathering, a cop was directing traffic. We had stumbled upon our second Posadas procession of the season. The bed of a large pick-up truck was festooned with banners, pine boughs, and spanish moss. Children dressed as an angel, the Virgin Mary, and Joseph stood (a little shakily) in their little diorama-like environment. Revelers (families with children) carried star piñatas behind the truck, singing from the Posadas song books.
