    A Day in Leon

    October 20, 2023 in Spain ⋅ 🌬 12 °C

    Got a relatively good sleep last night. Did laundry in the sink and then went out walking for most of the day. Talked with a couple of other people who are walking the Camino. The temperature last week was in the 90’s and people were struggling. It doesn’t look like that will be a problem for the foreseeable future however. The forecast is for rain, followed by more rain for the next few days. Hopefully that won’t be the theme of this Camino!

    Some photos for the day. Good doors are important to Spanish people. Even in relatively run down areas, the doors are solid wood and one of the most notable features of a house. In nice neighborhoods doors are artwork.

    Went through the cathedral again. The architecture is astounding, especially considering the technology they had. It was built over a 50 year period. The city had a population of 5,000 at the time.

    Bedtime now. Tomorrow I start walking!
