Three Kings in the Epiphany Procession in Columbia Heights, 2009.
The New Columbia Heights blog points out what I missed on Sunday (drat!):
This past Sunday was Epiphany, also celebrated as Three Kings’ Day. Latin American Catholics in the neighborhood (and around the world) celebrate it with a big procession of people dressed as the Three Wise Men, Jesus, Joseph, and Mary, and more, complete with donkeys and sheep.
The procession goes down 14th and ended with a performance at the Gala Theatre, plus free churros and hot chocolate…The reader says more animals showed up a bit later.
Always like to see interesting cultural traditions like this.
