It was a miracle that we arrived safely in the upper region of Spain after travelling in snowy conditions for what seemed like forever. Not thinking that snow would be an issue as we left coastal Spain, which was unseasonally cold then, through the interior of Spain heading to France. Mind you, the roads were always clear, even those in remote villages.
Obviously, if we had researched the areas, we would have been alerted to the weather conditions. After years of travelling, sometimes we wanted to be surprised and we were. We mainly had beautiful blue skies and snow-covered mountains and villages to admire.
The above image shows Ermita de los Nogales (Hermitage of the Walnut Trees) in Patones de Arriba, covered in snow. This hermitage is a small, historic religious building nestled in a picturesque mountainous setting, surrounded by other equally gorgeous snow-covered buildings.
We survived, and this part of Spain made a lasting impression on us.
Life at No. 22 
So unusual to see it in snow, Suzanne. A lasting memory xx
