A day off in Burgos?

We attended a our first Pilgrim Mass in the Burgos Cathedral. It was a little strange, to say the least. We arrived early sat in the pews. When the priest entered, he was followed in by a groups of Pilgrims with back packs and hiking sticks. The priest stopped half way up the isle, and seemed to indicate all the Pilgrim's needed to sit in back. Most ignored him and sat in pews. Then, as the mass proceeded, a man went around, taped pilgrims on the shoulders, and had them move back. Very strange.

Next week climbed up to the Castillo de Burgos, on the highest hill. Puff, puff, someday off!

Great views to the east, we could see the ridges we climbed two days ago. To the west, views of the Meseta plateau, covered in empty wheat fields

We start on the Meseta tomorrow morning.
