Ryan and I tried some "empanadas de vigilia" today, which ended up just being empanadas without meat in them, because it is a Friday during Lent. Later, as we were sitting in the square enjoying a glass of beer and a game of cards with some local kids, hundreds of people start streaming out of the church, headed by this cross, "El Señor de los milagros." They were going around the plaza doing a stations of the cross. It seemed a little early to me, but I guess they do it every Friday during Lent. There were probably a couple hundred people, and they stuck around afterward to try and touch the statue of Jesus.
