09 APRIL 2004 - SAN MIGUEL DE ALLENDE, GUANAJUATO, MEXICO: A Mexican woman listens to church bells ring before a Good Friday procession to start at the Iglesia Oratorio before a Good Friday procession in San Miguel de Allende, GTO, MEX. Semana Santa, the week before Easter, is celebrated with extreme piety in central Mexico. San Miguel, which was founded in the 1600s, is one of Mexico's premier colonial cities. It has very strict zoning and building codes meant to preserve the historic nature of the city center. About 7,500 US citizens, mostly retirees, live in San Miguel. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
