In a procession there may also be Roman soldiers carrying Jesus to the cross. The steps may be followed by marching bands. The costaleros carry the steps on their shoulders. As they are very heavy, the costaleros have to walk very slowly and coordinated. They can go outside or inside the step. The foreman gives instructions to the bearers by speaking loudly and encouraging them. For the foreman, leading the pace is a responsibility and above all, an honor. Costaleros must rest frequently. Now they stop walking. It's hard, but for them it's a privilege. They do it with great enthusiasm and faith, because they offer their efforts to the Christ or the Virgin of whom they are devoted. After a few minutes, they pick up their pace again and continue walking. At the frequent stops someone can sing with great feeling a saeta, a flamenco-style song dedicated to Jesus or Mary. Holy Week is celebrated on different dates each year. Easter Sunday is the first Sunday after the first full moon after the March equinox. This happens in March or April. The period of forty days leading up to Holy Thursday is called Lent. There is a custom of not eating meat on Fridays during Lent, although this custom is followed less and less. A typical Easter dessert is torrijas. This week the schools close. So for many people it is a small spring vacation to rest, or if they can, travel. Thousands of people come to see the processions. Non-believers observe this tradition with respect. Believers feel faith, emotion and a lot of feeling when the procession passes. The most spectacular and crowded processions are held in central Spain, in the cities of Andalusia and, above all, in Seville.
