DIARIO DE NAVARRA .-Only in spanish. .- Sorry

Surprise for two italian pilgrims................


Un peregrino de nacionalidad italiana intenta abrir la puerta de su vehículo tras acceder a él gracias al paso de un tractor tras la intensa nevada que durante dos días ha caído sobre la zona. La cota de nieve se sitúa al final de la jornada en los 1.200 m pero ha dejado tras de sí un espesor de nieve de 60 cm, siendo en estas fechas uno de los temporales mas fuertes de los últimos años.-

A pilgrim of Italian nationality trying to open the door of his vehicle after access it through the passage of a tractor after heavy snowfall which has fallen for two days on the area. The snow level is at the end of the day in the 1,200 m but has left behind a thickness of 60 cm of snow, and at this time one of the storms stronger in recent years .

A pilgrim from Italian hopes with a shovel of a tractor step toward their vehicle that has been practically buried in the snow in the Collegiate of Roncesvalles after heavy snowfall which has fallen for two days on the area.

Not that I have much sympathy for pilgrims that travel by car
