Musicians in Banastón Usana
.jpg)
On Friday evening, the "vecinos"(residents) of Banastón Usana started the fiesta with a "hoguera" or small bonfire. Lamb chops and "longaniza" (sausages) galore were barbecued in the coals and the wine flowed freely in the "porrón"(wine jar with long spout). This morning a musical aperitif brightened a cold, foggy morning. As per tradition, one of the more important houses in the village -the small chapel also belongs to this house-invited the local priest to lunch after a short service in the chapel as well as other neighbours and friends; 20 in all. It was one of those lunches that last from 2 in the afternoon until 6. Lots of good food and plenty of tales.
