Tables and Columns

Tables and Columns
“Tables and Columns” — Tables set up between pillars under a portico, Santiago de Compostela, Spain.

On a cool May Day, these tables in the sunlight between stone columns along a narrow street in Santiago de Compostela were quite attractive. While the narrow streets serve, in part, to reduce the amount of hot sun on the passageway in the summertime, on this cloudy day a bit of sunshine between the arches seemed appealing.

For us, travel is an opportunity to stretch boundaries and step outside of the usual routines. At home, we’re more likely to just walk along our local streets without stopping, but here it seems like stopping is the point.
