For the first time since 2019 they’re putting up the bleachers for Semana Santa in Plaza San Francisco. I actually have a couple of lunchtime tapas tours booked that week and will take a cautious look around a few of the processions (I know the routes and how to avoid the crowds). It’s concerning that governments are cutting back on testing, artificially forcing Covid “numbers” down simply by ignoring them. And you hear very little any more about Covid in the media. I keep doing rapid tests once a week and also keep hoping Spain won’t revoke the mask mandate for indoor public places. Lots of mixed feelings about things returning to “normal”.

You are not the only one. At least here it’s not the “no rule rule” culture that the UK government has adopted…no tests available, no masks, no travel restrictions…but I will be following the advice given by Andalusian health minister back in January that we should wear masks until after Semana Santa even in public spaces, and avoid crowds. We will be watching a couple of parades from either our terrace or out of the centre streets…..or on the tv!

I have spent years circling Semana Santa crowds and then finding my opening to get in and out without getting crushed in the frenzy. I like to watch a bit from a distance but then of course always want to get a photo or three. Let’s see how it goes this year.
