Spring in Santiago

It has gone from cold to warm in a matter of a week.

Not too many days ago we had below freezing during the night, last night I registered a minimum temperature of 9c. Today we have had a sunny day with close to 25c in the shade.

This is Norwegian summer, Spanish spring. If you are planning a trip for Easter, it looks like Semana Santa will be a warm one.

So if you are planning to come to Santiago this week, I would bring something for the wind and the rain.

This winter has been the driest for 75 years, so a bit of rain is much needed. Maybe not so great if you are visiting town though... :?

Hi, I’ve got 3 1/2 days in Santiago at the end of my camino, and I’m thinking to go to Vigo to watch the football on the 15th. It is a 10 pm kick-off, so I am wondering if it is likely to get any...
