THE ADORATION OF THE MAGI - Cansaulim, Goa - 6 JAN 2005

After prayers at the local
church in Cansaulim
one of the selected 'Kings'
from the family of the celebrants...

...start on the long trek through villages and fields...

...in a procession with other folks from the village
and the band playing along the way....


...and finally the end of the journey is near....

...the mount is in sight...

...finally reaching the chapel on the hill.
There they will meet the other two 'Magi'
who will trek up the hill from other villages
and meet them in front of the chapel,
culminating with
a con-celebrated Solemn High Mass
and other traditional festivities.
