Ok so as much as I loved Semana santa, Easter Sunday was the strangest day of my life. It was just like any other Sunday. There were just as many if not less people in church that day and we didn´t do anything too out of the ordinary. It was soooo strange. All week long we had watched crucified Jesus and distraught Mary parade through the streets but then the day of the resurrection, the central part of the entire celebration, the point of Easter, rolls around and nothing happens. I don´t get it. Does he just never get to get off the cross? Are the spanish people walking around with a crucifix statue in their heads or do they realize that he gets off the cross, he conquers death!! He died so we could live!! That is why we celebrate Easter...isn´t it?? I am not sure why this bothers me so much but it does....
