The White people started the pilgrimage in honor of San Roque, patron of White.
At 8 am, the march began with the loud tolling of bells and the clatter of firecrackers and rockets.
The tour began in the plaza of the Church and continued through the streets Generalissimo, Concepcion and Barrio Nuevo, reaching the so-called "end of town" where the pilgrims followed the road from the station, until the San Roque.
Once there, hundreds of faithful honored their patron, first Mass in his honor and then a sprig of thyme from the wounds of the Holy.
As mandated by the betrayal, that lived from Blanca holiday where you eat, a real holiday, the traditional "cute", the fried rabbit with tomato, a piece of tortilla, a handful of broad beans, and all washed down by a good drink of wine and of course the monkeys with or without egg.
At 19 hours, the saint arrived at the entrance of the village where thousands of people waited to take him in procession to the parish of San Juan Evangelista.
