Barefoot in the Rain

Day 96

Today was Corpus Christi or Fronleichnam in German, so everything was closed and there was a procession. A procession is sort of like a parade except no one is running sirens or throwing candy. There were lots of little girls in white dresses,

lots of people carrying really heavy religious icons,

and a few people carrying stools to set the really heavy icons on whenever the procession stopped for something.

These seemed to be the most famous/important/cool icons:

And then at the end i got to see the Bishop.
