What holiday is it?  There is nothing in my Spanish diaries about it....

There's an annual pilgrimage from Albox to the Shrine of the Salient to pay their respects to the venerated Virgen del Saliente. Albox always has a day off the following day but I believe that the walk was on Saturday this year instead of Sunday - but they still had the day off!

I did wonder if it had anything to do with the Saliente walk.  Thanks for confirming it Wolfie :smiley:
