The talking gargoyles

Hello friends
I know this is a travel blog and I don't know if this post will be classified as a trip.
But it is a trip in itself since it teaches the small details of great sites.
Making the visit a little more enjoyable and different

Today I am going to talk about gargoyles.
They are located in the town of Castro Urdiales, it already belongs to Cantabria, Spain.
Being only a few minutes away by car from my city is a very visited site any Sunday morning.
It is nice to take a walk a town on the shores of the Cantabrian Sea.
With a beautiful harbor and a beautiful walk.
You have an entry here:

Simply by entering the town you can see it, in the distance. She is the highest, as if she would take care of everyone, attentive to everything that happens below.
But today we will see only a little his cathedral, dedicated to Santa Maria.
I say a little because what really interests me is its beautiful gargoyles.
Time has not been benevolent with them.
Built between the thirteenth and fifteenth centuries and being gothic, it is perfect for me.

Well what I told you about gargoyles.
I think you will all know some gargoyle.
Castro and his church are full of them.
The function they assumed was to evacuate the water when it rained.
But who can't fantasize about other things?
If I look at them in an order, they can tell me a story.
Of course fantasy, I am not a historian or writer.
But seeing them like this, why couldn't they tell this story?

The flying bird came was very upset and loudly shouting.
The scream was wild and sharp.
IMGP7779.jpg
The lord of the winds repeated the words of the bird.
With his great voice he toured the entire territory.

The lord with a tooth
His eyes go out of the basins.
His hands tore his lips.
IMGP7780.jpg
The wolf waited patiently for events.
He is never in a hurry, he knows the gargoyles, they always exaggerate the news.
IMGP7781.jpg
But even the nun was upset, her neck almost separated from her head.
The seagulls those shrieking beings that roam the beautiful arches of the cathedral were scanning.
IMGP7838.jpg
They looked calm but observant.
Posadas in what used to be small rock caves.
IMGP7830.jpg
They were used to gargoyle talk.
They always shouting for their big mouths.
IMGP7764.jpg
Feet of duck said that nothing happened, that she had looked for him.
That double-edged tongues deserved punishment.
That she was always with bad arts and what happened to her had deserved it.

Mrs……
He was always looking down and was very gossip, he was very interested in the lives of others, but only to criticize or reproach the behavior of others.
IMGP7694.jpg
All the supreme lords met
The conclusion they drew was clear.
If they were gargoyles and had a mission, they could not spend the day criticizing others.
IMGP7795.jpg
So they condemned her that spiders would nest in her mouth.
That from now on everyone would suffer the same fate.
That the motto of life is:
Live and let live.
