The Parador of Leon is one of the finest and most unique hotels in the world. It has a matchless Plateresque facade and an ornate Baroque interior. Staying here is a dream come true for those who really appreciate traditional architectural design at its finest.
Parador Leon is the epitome of style, and in 1829 the English writer, Edward Cook Widdrington, wrote, “There can be no beauty comparable to the arabesques and adornments of the facade of the monastery of San Marcos.”
The true original name of this remarkable building was, La Casa Primada de la Orden de Santiago. Re-construction and expansion was begun in 1515. At that time, there was already a pilgrim’s hostal on this site that had been founded by a pious local princess, Infanta Doa Sancha. It has remained a hostelery for pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago, and also became the seat of a military order of priests, the Order of Saint James. During the times of the Crusades it also served as a monastery: It has also been a civilian prison, a church prison, an army barracks and a horse stables and stud farm. Now - it is one of the very finest Paradors in the Parador chain.
The Leon Parador surrounds a magnificent cloister that itself is filled with manicured gardens and topped by a colonnaded balcony. It’s architectural style is primarily Plateresque on the outside - a style that was a transition from Gothic to Renaissance - and Baroque on the inside.
The city of Leon began as a base for Roman soldiers who were guarding the old gold mines west of the city. It was the garrison for the seventh legion and got it’s name for the Latin word for legion - legio. It was later the capital of Asturias Y Leon, and was one of the most important stops on the Camino de Santiago. It remains today a place that has a subtle, yet strong attraction for the traveler. Leon has much to see . . .
Interesting excursions from Parador Leon into the city:
- Don’t miss the spectacular Gothic Cathedral - and try to see it at night as well - when it is fully lit up.
- The Casa Botines, designed by the genius architect, Antonio Gaudi.
- The Real Basilica de San Isidro, an absolute gem of the Romanesque style.
- The 17th century Plaza Mayor, and the Plaza Santa Maria.
- The Leon Parador itself is one of the highlights of the city - you’ll spend many pleasant hours just wandering and discovering its many fascinating areas - including its own museum.
Interesting day trips include:
- Driving north up into the mighty Picos de Europa.
- Driving east to visit the beautiful Iglesia de San Miguel de Escalada.
This is one of Spain’s very special hotels. If life affords you the chance to visit this extraordinary place - use whatever means necessary to make it happen.

When you’re planning a trip, you’ve got a lot to think about in
terms of packing. It can make all the difference in whether your
vacation or trip is a blast or a bore - if you forget something
important, you could end up seriously regretting it. This
article will give you some useful tips for packing for your next
trip.
First, always pack the morning of your trip. Never pack the
night before. This seems illogical to many people - they don’t
want to put it off until the last minute. However, this is
actually the safest way to avoid forgetting important things. If
you pack the night before, you have to leave a number of your
important travel items unpacked - alarm clocks, personal items,
toiletries - you’re going to use all those things in the
morning, and you might just leave them at home if you wait. If
you must pack the night before, consider alternatives. Make a
list of everything you will need that will be left out - then
check them off before you leave. Or, you can simply buy a
“travel pack” that will duplicate everything you might need.
Second, spend a few hours thinking about what you will be
doing. Lists are your friend - they’ll make sure that you have
everything you need. If you’re a frequent traveler, you only
have to do it once - many people have found themselves rushing
to the department store to buy a tie or shoes that they forgot
to bring on an important business trip. Don’t be that guy.
“The seeds of depression cannot take root in a grateful heart.” - Andy Andrews
Is this a grateful time of year for you or a depressed time of year?
As a therapist and coach, I hear the following statement often at this time of year:
“I bet you see a lot of depressed people this time of year.”
Well, yes and no.
The depressed time of year?
Somehow it has seeped into our culture as common wisdom that there are a whole lot of depressed people during the holidays. To some extent, this is true. It can be a tough time of year for those that have suffered recent losses or changes, or people that are apart from their loved ones.
The interesting thing is that I tend to see more people struggling with sadness and depression after the holidays than I do during the holidays.
It makes sense when you think about it - all the hoopla and excitement of the holidays is now over and it’s back to real life. It’s cold and now you have to pay holiday bills.
Gratitude beats depression
I believe that gratitude beats depression every time. It’s like the childhood game Rock-Paper-Scissors - Rock always bests Scissors, Scissors always beats Paper, and Paper always beats Rock.
And so it is - Gratitude always beats Sadness and Depression.

I don’t know about you, but at this time of year I always think of work. It’s harvest time. Because of the years I spent in the MidWest, I was around people who were harvesting produce, bringing in the crop for the year. The quirks of nature notwithstanding, they would be reaping what they had sown. The result of their work was visible, and commensurate to the amount of effort and care they had put into it. They also had an ending. The crop that had been planted was now being harvested. Then it would all begin again.
We do not all have work like this.
My musings started the first of October this year, as I volunteered a lot of time working at the church’s pumpkin patch, which raises $50,000 each year for local charities.
Most of the time I just sold pumpkins, but two Saturdays we unloaded huge trucks of pumpkins hauled in from a Navajo pumpkin farm in another state.
We formed a chain of humans and passed the pumpkins down the line to eventually be arranged on the church lawn.
On one side of me were 2 parolees doing community service time. They talked about how much better this job was than the one they’d done earlier, and how nice it was to be out in the sunshine. Both of them expected to be “out” by Christmas. I didn’t ask them what they were “in” for.
On the other side of me were teenagers from the youth choir who complained a lot about how hard it was and had to be reminded to pay attention. I’m sure they couldn’t imagine working at anything for 8 hours in a row, especially something so, like, boring, dude.
The pumpkins came down the line in various sizes and shapes, shiny and wet, some with dirt on them.
It was very primal.
I wondered if the Navajos on the other end of the process had formed a line to pitch them into the truck. And if they took pride in their work. If they even saw the marvel of the pumpkins any more.
One time there was a middle-aged woman standing next to me. “You’re a good worker,” she said. “You don’t complain.” If only she knew how much I was enjoying myself.
“I was raised with the work ethic,” I said. It’s stood me in good stead. Having been taught that work was work and play was play somehow frees me from the “complaining” side and allows me to enjoy work. Most of the time anyway.
As the pumpkins passed by us we noted you couldn’t tell how much one would weigh by looking. There were some surprises. It’s the density.
Such different shapes, too. “Squash” someone would yell and down would come a pumpkin that didn’t know it was a pumpkin. Sometimes nature errs. What is the line between “pumpkin” and “squash” anyway? One or the other must have been a mutant at some time. How exciting to discover one. There’s no such thing as a mistake, I’m reminded.
Twice a “perfect” pumpkin came down the line and work slowed as each person paused to admire it. No one reprimanded, “Move it along.” We understood our mutual need to appreciate perfection when it comes our way. Once in a lifetime … twice on the pumpkin line … life is sweet indeed. We have the archetype of the perfect pumpkin, and the perfect woman, and the perfect love affair, and the perfect job. (Hope you’ve had yours!)
I enjoy that kind of work a lot. Touching things with my hands, physical labor. It’s a nice change of pace for me. I work with my head, with people, with ideas, and with computers.
We were a human assembly-line and I thought of the people who do that kind of work for a living. Maybe you do. We were able to talk, and were outside on two beautiful, sunny, breezy days. And it was only for 3 hours. I wondered what it would be like 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
Abruptly it was over. “No more,” they yelled, and we passed it on down the line. As we workers scattered, I gazed over the sunny scene. The pumpkins, which had grown on the ground were back there, only clean, and arranged orderly by size this time. Ashes to ashes, I thought, to the same place returneth, but then the scene became dynamic. The pumpkins had a lot in store for them. Already some were being used as backdrops for family photographs, while others were being carted off to become a jack-o-lantern, lawn pumpkin, or pumpkin pie.
My job, now completed, was part of a much larger scenario, yet from it I had harvested much.
At Thanksgiving time, a time of harvest and bounty, I invite you to reflect on your work and your life — the mission and meaning side of it. The planting of the seed part of it. The reaping what you have sown part of it. Have you? Will you?
