Santillana Del Mar
Hotel Altamira
Up until now all of the towns I’ve stayed in have been on the sea.
But here the walk turns inland briefly to go through Santillana Del Mar, which is NOT on the sea in spite of its name.
It is a beautiful Medieval town with cobble-stoned streets, well-maintained ancient buildings, and a Romanesque church.
I attended a mass where I understood very little so I made up my own sermon about God’s love, kindness, and forgiveness.
As I left Gran Hotel in Santander yesterday, skipping and tripping down the path, I did indeed trip and turn my hip. So I was grateful yet again for the bathtub tonight and a chance to soak, rest, and wander in this little town today.
