    Burgos/Hornillos del Camino

    July 20, 2021 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    Resting up in Burgos has been good. My ankle was bugging me pretty good and it’s feeling somewhat better now. Just sleeping in in a private room is nice. The cathedral, unfortunately was closed to prepare for the 800 year anniversary celebration. Saw some of the sights, but mostly just layed low and rested on Monday. I iced my foot and tried without luck to find a place to get my ankle taped. It’s better from having the rest, but I need to protect so it can heal up. We want to keep going, but I can’t risk making it worse. We picked an alburgue to forward our packs to last night and are splitting up for the day. Dale is walking to Hornillos del Camino and my plan was to keep looking for foot help and then take a bus there. I found a sports medicine clinic and went there first thing this morning to camp on their door. I caught the first person that showed up and they are going to work me in at noon! Then I’ll catch a bus that leaves at 1:15 for a town near our planned stop for the day.Read more
