We dismiss the year 2008 being grateful for your visits to this place that we inaugurate on April 28, and wishing the best thing the whole world for the year 2009 that shortly we will begin. And to look with optimism nothing better than the following engraved video on December 23, 2008, at about 5 PM, from the Lookout of the Well of the Ontanillas. The Well is what you can see, below, an ancient turret of alertness that had a cistern in his base and was serving to water the orchards in stairs of The Poyales, to his feet. El Pozo es lo que podéis ver, abajo, un antiguo torreón de vigilancia que tenía un aljibe en su base y servía para regar los huertos en escalera de Los Poyales, a sus pies.

♪ There Sounds musician of the pianist Slovena Maya Filipič, resident in Burgos. We listen to his composition “Stories from Emona I”.

Happy exit and entry of year and we keep on reading / seeing.
