OUCHIE.

I'm just back from the Via Crucis here in my miserable little town and it just devasted me ;o;
It was so cold, and I walked for so long (consider that we started at 2100 and finished around 2325), my body is all aching and I had to keep my hands under hot water for a good minute T_T

Though, I feel kinda refreshed, spiritually speaking.
I don't know why people get to feel "purer" when they just got hurt all over, must be some psychological trick about optimism...

--I managed to take some pictures! As usual the quality is terrible, 'cause my digital camera doesn't work nicely at night, expecially with moving subjects ;_;
I should describe each scene properly but I'm too tired for it and tomorrow I have work.

So if you wanna know more about Via Crucis just check its wiki ^_^


The guy who acted like Caiaphas was pretty cool! His clothes were really nice!


Pontius Pilate. --When he was settling around (before the ceremony) he came up with a "Ave Cesare, mòri te che te saluto" ("Hail Cesar, you die so I tell you goodbye") instead of "Ave Cesare, morituri te salutant" ("Hail Cesar, those who are about to die salute you"-- The famous gladiators' motto), in Roman dialect, so we all lolled XD


Jesus is condemned to death and he gets his crown of thorns.


The Roman soldiers... COOL!
--Everytime that there's a Via Crucis to come up with, everyone wants to play the Roman soldier, also if they're "evil" XD


Jesus is given his cross.


Simon of Cyrene carries the cross.


Jesus meets the daughters of Jerusalem.


Again, the daughters of Jerusalem.


A nice shot of Jesus and Simon.
--I finally managed to get closer enough to get a nice pic XD


Jesus is stripped of His garments.
--"Figuratively", since it was so cold XD


Oh my, they even came up with a tiny Golgoth ;0; !!
Here the Romans are writing "INRI" over Jesus' cross.


Jesus dies on the cross ._.

And that's all... Ugh-- I have to sleep now.
Again, sorry for the poor quality of the pics ;_; I hope you appreciated my efforts anyway ^_^;

The road signs make for a great discrepancy. :D "Excuse me, centurion Dubious Status, can I park my cross here?" XD

Non sapevo fossi così religiosa.
Io ho avuto un mancamento alla messa d notte; il riscaldamento era al massimo e sono mezza svenuta. Che donnicciola. *si impicca*
