Today Saturday we have gone for a trip. The content or excuse was a lunch for which previously you had to be registered. But, the main reason was to give something of life to a region consisting of fourteen very small villages. This region is named Camero Viejo. The meal has been celebrated in the smaller one, Hornillos. In winter the population is about four families. In Summer grows until fifty people.
It is perhaps a common phenomenon in other Spanish regions and even in other countries. People wants the city comodities, sacrificing, in exchange, peace and quiet and to live surrounded by a wonderful countryside.
This is normal. In winter living conditions are very harsh.
The event has been a succes. People in August are ready to leave home for any excuse at weekends. According to organizers, among whom were our friends, we have come about a thousand people.
We all have had a really good time, but the really sad is that the majority of these small villages are doomed to extinction.
It is sad, but life is like that.
