The plazas are busy but most stores closed so we’ll siesta with the locals.
Went to a pilgrims mass this morning at the main cathedral here in Burgos. Burgos was the primary capital of Spain for a good bit of its history so the cathedral is suitably grand.
We didn’t understand much of the service of course, and not being Catholic , didn’t participate in the sacraments themselves. But we did get enough to hear the word perigrinos (pilgrims) and understand a call to be greeted after the service. It was a nice gesture and part of the whole pilgrimage experience that perigrinos are often recognized in such a way.
What will the rest of the day bring?
