I've spent time in Santiago twice now a couple of years apart with the most recent time in 2010 and there are many things and people I remember. However there is one in particular that sticks in mind (and I don't know why) which is passing underneath the brief pedestrian underpass leading into the Cathedral square and listening to the street musician who was a Galician bagpiper. His pipes echoed strangely off the stone walls of the underpass and while I did make a contribution I would have bought a CD but he didn't have any.
