Semana Santa in Seville Spain???


Has anyone ever been to the celebrations of Semana Santa in Seville Spain? What are the decorations like? And what are some interesting things they do in the celebration?

You would experience some of the most interesting parades there are in Europe. Men are dressed like the KKK but in various different coloured outfits and carry very heavy statues of the Virgin Mary and else. Semana Santa, or the Holy Week is propably the main season here in Spain, and it is very hard to find any place to stay. Prices go up.
But it is an experience first class.

Here you may see some pics of it:

PS. We don't dress as KKK, in fact is KKK who dress like us.
