On the way to the pilgrimage route from Barcelona to Santiago de Compostela in northern Spain, we pass the meridian!
The photo was taken 500m from the meridian….
If anything, Spain is a more western country than the UK. In spite of this, the time difference is the same as that of continental Europe. In other words, it is one hour earlier than London.
Europe is on daylight saving time at this time of the year, so dusk is late even for free.
As for Spain, it’s further west than the continent including France and Germany, so it’s no wonder that the sun sets at almost 11 p.m. and dinner starts at 9 p.m. at the earliest.
さあ巡礼路目指してひた走ります!(続く)
