Hi, annie,
I am very interested in this story, but the link to La Voz de Galicia doesn't work for me. If anyone can figure it out, I'd appreciate it.

I had seen something about this same topic last month that I thought was very interesting and posted this thread:

discuss-news-from-santiago/topic16300.html

Buen camino, Laurie

Thanks, Annie,
Yes, I can read it. How sad -- this article is about the fact that the Two Marias, such an iconic part of Santiago, are buried in tombs that are in disgraceful condition. The article points to the irony that the people of Santiago came together to fund a house for them when their house was destroyed by torrential rains, yet no one is willing to spend a dime to fund their resting place.

The article was published in yesterday´s La Voz de Galicia.

BTW - I think the link works better now.
