Things that only happen in Ronces Department

This Sunday, I'm sitting aaround the apartment when I hear some singing. For a few minutes it sounds like its coming from some nneighbours TV annd I ignore it. But it gets louder, and suddenly I realize that something is going on outside.

Looking outside I see a mass of people on the street being led by a procession of priests and altar servers with banners and flags and crosses. By the priests robes, I figure they're Roman Catholic and the singing sounds like its Polish to me. So I figure its somme sort of religious procession. You know like at Easter or something where the parisioners circle the church three times.

But suddenly they all stop at a house a few doors away. The altar servers roll out a carpet and one of the priests gets on his knees and sings a hymn or two. Looks like they are blessing the house. People are gathered all around. A line of what looks like boy and girl scouts flank the priest. People are milling around everywhere, singing and ringing bells. I figure, better get out the camera.

The first shot below shows the priestly party in front of the house they are blessing. The other shot shows a bit of the crowd in the street.
