 the BEST snack EVER.  this baked potato was loaded with butter, olives, cord, ham, carrots and who knows what else. mmmmm!!!!

 

 

now this was from today in cordoba where the tronos are called pasos, and which are carried by men underneath which you can't see.  you can see their white feet underneath

 

 

 the things that look like turbans on the heads of the ppl in the bottom of the picture are what the guys where on their heads to help them carry the pasos.

 

 

 

 more feet!
