There are two nice fiestas coming up at the beginning of September.
In El Paso, the statue of the Virgin of the Pine was carried in procession from the hermitage up in the mountain down to the village. On September 6th, there will be another procession to carry it back.
The Devil’s dance, Tijarafe, 2007.
In Tijarafe in the early hours of September 8th, the devil will join the dance. This is a man in a suit covered with lit fireworks, and no, I don’t think it’s entirely safe. On the other hand, I’ve never heard of any bad accidents, and it’s certainly memorable and great fun. The party starts the night before, of course, with the usual music, dancing, and mobile bars.
