Burial Of The Sardine 2016. Morning Of The Burial.

Burial morning is a party through the streets of Murcia. The Sardineros go out giving gifts, especially to children. There is also a small parade, with lots of music. In the pictures you can see a marching band from Japan, another of Mexico. Other percussion groups from different cities (click to enlarge the image). At the end a crazy morning, to enjoy it, and to prepare for the big parade of the Burial of the Sardine (Entierro de la Sardina 2016), at night. With a final fire (a big sardine is burned), and fireworks.
