Holy week in my town
This week we're in a long weekend because of holy week. Yesterday I went to a village in my home town where there is a typical holy week event called "Romper la hora", the people take their drums and bass drums and gather in a square then when the clock reach the midday all together start to play their instruments in a quite good unison rhythm. They remain playing until 3 in the afternoon, that's four hours without stop! after that they stop a couple of hours and continue playing and going in procession so far next day.
After watching "la rompida de la hora" I went to a near village where the people of the village act in front of a mountain and represent Jesus' Calvary, where the Roman's take him and punish him go up a hill where in the end he is hang on the cross.

* a village can't be "in" a town
** 'unison' means to play in rhythm together, so it's redundant to use all three words
