haha, for a second I thought this was video of this year's corpus Christi procession...I thought to myself, wow! they uploaded this fast! Then I realized it said from 2008.
Never the less, it is beautiful, and it's great that to see that in Bavaria the people would still genuflect or kneel when the Blessed Sacrament passes by. 👍Mehr

Corpus Christi Day in Germany is celebrated with colorful processions where the Sacrament and other holy symbols are carried through villages. Small-town streets are decorated with flowers and greenery, and children dressed in white and wearing wreaths of flowers accompany women in regional costume and local clergy. Sometimes people display pictures of Christ and spread carpets in front of their houses in honor of the day.

The most picturesque of these processions take place in Bavaria, where Corpus Christi is a legal holiday. Some are held on lakes rather than in the streets, with flower-decked boats carrying members of the procession and worshippers across crystal clear waters. The processions at Lake Staffelsee and Lake Chiemsee in Upper Bavaria are among the most dramatic.
