Dolores Festival. In Spanish means 'sorrows.' The festival itself was far from sorrowful - 0nly the camels looked unhappy but then they always do. Teenagers sexing up local dress - some of them flying round on the fairground whirling octopus topped by monster man. More processing towards Dolores herself, in her black and silver robe on a plinth of flowers. Horses, donkeys -tractors, tractors pulling boats, on which they were frying fish they were then dispensing to the crowds.....a gigantic harvest festival you could say....
