I notice that the people in Burgos are wearing jackets & scarves, so I looked up the temperature. It appears that it is cool today, but it will be a high of 90°Fahrenheit next Saturday (& yes, the USA is backward in not using Celsius, as are the Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Liberia, Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Marshall Islands. Why? ¿Quién sabe? - Showing off my little bit of Español!) As always, I love the journey, which gives me an idea of what it is like to make that trip. Do you run into many travelers as you walk? The town of Burgos is absolutely beautiful! I would think you could spend days just wandering & admiring the architecture! But you have a ways to go, & can’t linger at each stop. I hope the rest of the way goes smoothly, no more fires, & good weather. Stay safe!

And thanks!

Thank you again and a bunch for your musical video impression of the small but famous Spanish city of Burgos I didn’t know.

What a magical city! How fortunate that you arrived during their 2022 Festival. Was that planned? In any case, I really enjoyed all the street performances - music, dancing and people enjoying life, with a backdrop of wonderful architecture.

Thanks for sharing your experiences!

Today’s video is a warm moving reminder how music, from classical chamber to street musicians to soulful singers enrich our lives. I hope you are feeling the magic of the Camino each day.

Another bit of Camino magic!

What a full day you’ve had! From the hills of Agés to a lively fiesta in Burgos. Did they know you were coming?

It’s a wonderful video, artfully composed. The Cathedral is magnificent. Amazing architecture, so many spires, and the interior is breathtaking!

Thank you for the time and effort you put into making these productions when you must be bone tired after walking. They are much appreciated.
