Marchas Populares 3 August 2011


2200hrs 3 August saw us once more wandering up the Rua de Jesus, this time to watch the Marchas Polpuares - indeed a very popular event judging by the crowds lining the street.
Groups of all ages dressed in matching, sometimes elaborate, clothing made specially for the event danced their way down the decorated street to the accompaniment of their own wind bands
