Orante

Last Monday was a holiday-for St George's Day (which was actually Sunday but we had a day off in lieu)
It was a beautiful morning so we did a little excursion to Orante on the old road to Sabiñánigo.
There's a stone church building and a few houses. We were met by a couple of friendly Pyrenean mountain dogs and an elderly chap who escourted us along the track to the chapel of San Benito. It's all a bit mysterious and "New-Age"; apparently it's got "Teluric energy" and has been used at least since the Bronze Age. One part of the chapel wall is reputedly more than a thousand years old. The location is simply spectacular.

There's a little vent in the wall opposite the door which is apparently something like Celtic, to catch the last rays of the setting sun on the Equinox in March; the guide told us that this was very rare because they were usually for the sunrise.  Nice place!
That was April 24th. Warm and sunny. Today is the 28th and I lit the fire in the living room!
