Wow, that was a whole different Praza do Obradoiro! I feel privileged to have arrived on the last day of the year and to celebrate the new year here

Hmmm...I don't recall ever seeing the grassy knoll with tree you're standing on. Has that always been there & I somehow didn't notice it? Or is it 'new'...in my case, since mid 2015?

Oh...pardon my manners, 'Happy New Year' to one & all. How special to be there at this time @Luka!

It isn't there normally. It is Christmas decoration.

Well...thank goodness for that.
I thought surely I couldn't have missed a patch of green amidst all the stone & concrete!

Happy New Year! A little detail in your photo just made me smile. A neighbour of mine in Wales used to make almost identical wooden reindeer in many different sizes and hand them out to people in our village as gifts. A lovely man and a one-off eccentric who is much missed. Many thanks for bringing Gwynfor to mind this morning!

Happy New Year everyone! We’ll be starting our Camino April 1 from Leon. We stopped there on our last Camino due to getting sick with Covid. We are so looking forward to it!!
