Amazing gift from a pilgrim

I've just got some wonderful gift from a pilgrim.
She was in our albergue in June 2013.
She made 10 mugs and sent me by post service.
I'm very impressed and thank you so much!!!!

There was a derailing disaster on the line between Madrid - Santiago de Compostela yesterday night(24/July). So far the death toll is over 120. 24/July ~ 25/July is the annual Santiago de Compostela local holiday(Saint Jacob's day) and it lead the number of the affected people to increase.

All the Santiago related associations in Spain has decided to have a silent tribute for the dead between 21:30 and 21:40 (Spanish local time), today(25/July).

It will be highly appreciated if you join us to have a small silent tribute for them.

Our condolences to our friends.

I like this painting of Salvador Dali but I didn't know the original idea came from XVI Century before visiting Avila.

I visited the Convento Encarnacion in Avila.

I stunned when I met a cross which was drawn by Saint Juan in XVI century.
