Pastor Mandy's Serene Morning video of the day
ReisenderWas that a mausoleum at the beginning of your beautiful morning video? You pilgrims have been absolutely surrounded by beauty this whole trip. I'm so glad for you! (Plus the food has looked fabulous.)
ReisenderOH quite possible. if you take a closer look - it is a cemetery beyond that wall (most small villages are like that - a small church or chapel is inside the cemetery)

In Arzúa, the Estrellas del Camino (Stars of the Camino) mural depicts Antón Pombo, a highly respected historian, writer, and expert on the Camino de Santiago. The artwork is a hyper-realistic pieceWeiterlesen
ReisenderIt's a series. About 5-6 IIRC spread through some towns on Camino Frances
ReisenderThere's lots of information about that mural on Google. Apparently there are seven of these huge photorealistic murals -- the worlds largest outdoor gallery. And each mural is of a real person whose hospitality has supported the Camino. Wow!
