Moors and Christians Festival, Crevillente - October 2011

The members of the U3A were officially invited to the Moors and Christian Festival in Crevillente on 1st October 2011. It was a spectacular affair as may be expected in this part of Spain with a large procession which went on into the hours of darkness. One of our members, Chris Davidson, organized the visit and also took part in the parade as he is a member of one of the groups. He later gave a talk at our Monthly Meeting wearing his spectacular costume. We had a number of photographs of the event submitted and thanks to those who sent them in. A selection is shown below.
