Not such a good start to Semana Santa 2003 with the first procession cancelled due to a spot of rain.  I was with the crowd in the Plaza de la Villa when a policeman came out of the Casa de la Villa to announce that the procession was cancelled "por motivos meteorol�gicos" The forecast looks OK for later in the week My parents are coming to stay and we're going to 'do' Semana Santa in Madrid, but also take in some of the processions in Alcal�, Guadalajara, Segovia etc |
