800 000 years of HISTORY
Yesterday I passed thru Atapuerca, where anthropologists have recently discovered the oldest sample of humanoid remains.
There was a central hill with a 360 degree view surrounded by stone caves. if those stones could talk, what tales they could tell. today I am in Burgos where the museum has lots of artifacts.
Last night I stayed in a tiny village of perhaps 20 houses. It is called Ages and is just east of Burgos. The pilgrims gathered for supper. I hope those hominids of 800 000 years ago sometimes had as much fun as we did. Represented at the table were Ireland, Belgium, France, Spain, Hungary, Germany, Switzerland and Canada.

ReplyDeleteGetting so use to following your footsteps that I was lost yesterday when you didn't have any wifi connection. Great to see you're still having such fun and making new friends all the time
