272/499 … dancing with the Divine (10/16/08)
A bizarre-yet-eerily-typical deserted village. In the beginning of the Journey, we would come across such barren towns and I would simply assume that the inhabitants were taking their “siesta”. Later I realized that it often didn’t matter what time of day we walked through them, there was simply no living thing to be seen — no animals, no children, no ladies hanging out their laundry. It really did add to the whole “Twilight Zone” feel to the experience — AND I do still wonder where all the people were.
