Camino de Santiago – Via de la Plata (Zamora – Riego del Camino-Granga de Moreruela 37 kilometres)

Before leaving Zamora, we had promised to visit Marcelino in his home, an empty water tank.  A water tank in Spain, is a circular concrete structure, about the size of an average living room. He has no water or electricity, but has permission to live there. Marcelino is a fascinating character, and the chance to share more of his knowledge and his life was too enticing.

It was a beautiful, sunny morning and we made our way back across the Roman bridge to the water tank.  Marcelino greeted us warmly.  There was no door,  we just slide in through a hole in the wall…….cont’d.
