First need was for an extra layer of warm clothing. Our friendly landlady sent Valerie to the cheaper shops, however passing the market stalls provided two good thick fleeces and also a pair of undertrousers for Terry. Valerie has her Trekmates which were meant for pyjamas if needed but are fulfilling their original function. We are now wearing 5 layers! which is OK. The temperature is still in single figures and the locals are complaining. Our landlady is apologising that the heating in the building is off but we are quite warm inside.
We went to the Cathedral and then through the door into the Cámara Santa where Valerie had her Credential stamped. Terry now has a new Credential from the Cámara Santa for this year. We visited the museum as well as the Cámara Santa itself where the Sudarium is kept. (The head-cloth from Jesus' tomb) This is the original church on the site and has the twelve Apostles carved in pairs as pillars. (No photos as photography is forbidden)
