Surprise for two italian pilgrims................


Un peregrino de nacionalidad italiana intenta abrir la puerta de su vehículo tras acceder a él gracias al paso de un tractor tras la intensa nevada que durante dos días ha caído sobre la zona. La cota de nieve se sitúa al final de la jornada en los 1.200 m pero ha dejado tras de sí un espesor de nieve de 60 cm, siendo en estas fechas uno de los temporales mas fuertes de los últimos años.-

Not that I have much sympathy for pilgrims that travel by car
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
A pilgrim with a ... what? A vehicle? Pilgrims NEVER have to use this kind of mechanical machines!!

During my easter holidays in Asturias (Camino del Norte) was snowing during 40 hours!! Beautiful sights from my hotel.

Buen Camino,

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
