Stacey, Molly, Jennifer, and DeeDee walk from Siguero to Santiago along the historic Camino de Santiago route from England. #caminodesantiago #caminoingles
11:32 Yes, that's the vault where I sang most days when I was in Santiago. The gaitero negotiated a specific two hours as my schedual. (Before I lost my singing voice to colds).
I was in Santiago, basically, once,@@josephyearwood1179. 6 October 2004 + a few weeks more (a visit to A Coruña), then intended to leave, ended up joining a pilgrimage from Lugo and was in Santiago again a few hours in November. To _get there_ it took me 34 days hitchhiking etc Denmark to Irún, then 50 days mostly marching (some stays and hitchhiked on two days, before the last 100km) Pamplona to Santiago. So, I'm actually not a regular walker, just very nostalgic of the one walk I actually did.
"posada" ... in Mexican Christmas lore, La Posada is a tradition featuring a man, a girl and a donkey looking for shelter in Bethlehem as the Holy Family just before Jesus was born. I think this is a somewhat different, but clearly related usage of the word, so, what is the basic meaning?
4:50 I pretty much _do_ know why that's there. When the Inquisition judged witches, at least after 1611 witch trials, they considered them as witchcraft wannabees, and considered that not worth burning them for, but definitely sth to give them a penance for. The penance was a pilgrimage to ... I think you know where. Hence, any glorification of witches is pretty likely to have some romanticising of the Camino. I walked with two girls who were into a semi-Hindoo witch cult or semi-witch cult which considered witches as good practitioners of Ayur-Veda, who were honouring "their spiritual ancestors" by sharing their penance. (Is it Ayur-Veda or Ajur-Veda, btw? In my native accent, "my name is Yon Yonson, I come from Visconsin ...").
Another great journey, can’t wait for the next one.
Thanks!
Esa gaita que suena al entrar en la Plaza del Obradoiro, sí representa a Galicia. You understand?
The witch is in the Bosque Encantado (Enchanted forest)
We missed the witches, but the forrest was lovely!

11:44 Could possibly be the same gaitero, even.
Rings like yow stayed awhile whilst in Santiago. How many days do you do, on at last, getting to Santiago?

@@hglundahl Thanks for the answer Hans.
You sang in the tunnel where pilgrims were arriving? Were there not bagpipes there at that time?

In Spain posada is a slightly archaic word for “country inn.”
Thank you,@@pablodopico !

Clocked the witch on broomback too. Btw, “Visconsin” minds me of “Wascony”.
too much pavement walking
There was a lot of pavement at the end of the Ingles route.
Camináis por Galicia, no por Andalucía. Fuera esos rasgueos de guitarra!
