A transcription of the diary I kept while traveling in Spain in August of 1999.

16 August 1999

Iranzu -> Leyre -> Poblet

Got up early, breakfasted, got on the bus, and drove to Monesterio de Leyre, where we took the tour.

We continued out of Navarra, through Aragon and into Catalunya. We're getting further south, and it's getting warmer and warmer.

We dropped off our luggage at the hotel, drove down the road to the monastery of Poblet. We tuned and trooped in to catch the end of vespers, then got let into the choir. We gave two short abridged concerts, one for the parishoners (while the monks were eating supper) and another for the monks when they returned.

I stayed for compline, then walked back to the hotel, where I finally got my supper.
