Our week in Antigua was filled with so many amazing moments
for me: making our alfombra and watching the procession walk over it, hearing
the music of the bands reverberate inside La Merced as the andas were brought
back into the church at the end of the procession on Friday morning, seeing all
of the people making their own alfombras and watching the multiple processions,
and our trip out of the city to Lake Atitlan. But my Semana Santa moment was a
small, quiet moment. On Easter Sunday morning, Rene drove us up in groups to
Cerro de la Cruz, a park on a hill overlooking the city. Up there in the quiet
morning, the sky was clear so we could see all of Antigua and all three
volcanoes around the city. That beautiful site was the perfect time to reflect
back on all of the activities of the past week and what an unforgettable
experience we had just had. It was the perfect quiet culmination of our week of
amazing opportunities.
