Beer: San Miguel 5.4%
Post-procession we meander back over the (nominal/largely dried up) river towards our apartment. This is a very clean and decent bar, serving bottles of San Miguel and tapas. We have some Russian Salad and Patatas Bravas – although the cabinet also boasts something else Russian Saladesque, but with additional unction and crab stickery. We had one or the other… I can’t remember although, if it was just a case of pointing, I can’t see that we wouldn’t have plumped for RS+.
A quiet last drink of the evening was pleasantly enlivened by a returning paso, back from the Cathedral and wending its way back to its parish. Pleasingly, the crowds hadn’t followed, and the procession has a friends and family (some clergy no doubt) feel. The bell on the paso was struck for a break near to the bar – and several penitents (mostly whipping off their hoods beforehand) and bearers dived into the bar for water and/or a wee.
Stephanie insight: bar is a bit rubbish (my notes say I concur though, in retrospect, that seems a little harsh).
