A family I visited on the way to Christmas Eve Mass high in the Sierra San Juan.
An elderly couple living isolated about one-and-a half hours from the main road…I left them some goodies for Christmas Eve.
Rite of Bethlehem in San Juan de Yanac on Christmas Eve
Nativity set at the Church of San Juan…they decorate using fruit on strings.
A family in an old, beat-up van I encountered December 25th while descending from the mountains, we gave some panetone and some gifts for the kids.
