We are taking on unplanned break to experience civil protest. The coal
miners in northern Spain have been protesting the government's
decision to cut their subsidies by blocking major roads. Yesterday we
saw some of the circular scorches from previous tire burnings on the
roads near Villamanin. Today we're stuck along the A-8 near Soto.
Unfortunately we cannot simply turn around, as we are boxed in by
cliffs and gaurdrails on the median, so we will likely be here for
awhile...
