Notes from the Road: Easter in Caceres

For some it’s Easter egg hunts, for others meditations on torture and resurrection, others still a time to be ‘seen’ showing their penitence in hooded processions…for me it means that the simple fact of walking to my house becomes an ordeal.

Crowds clog the tiny arteries of the old town here in Caceres, while supposedly beatific onlookers become less than Christlike thinking that I’m cutting in front of them rather than simply walking home.

Matador Travel’s Notes from the Road recently published a walk of mine home.
