I learned today that short doesn't equate to easy. The 10 miles I did today was really kinda hard with the up and down of mountains. But the scenery was fantastic. I passed close and far ocean vistasЧитать далее
Greg JonesIt's pretty much the same. The first 100 miles through the Basque area the signage was excellent. Since then there have been a few areas where the signage could have been better. But overall, the signage is good. I missed an arrow this morning but a Spanish guy helped me and got me back on the Camino
ПутешественникHave fun!
Looks like a fantastic place to start. Buen Camino 👣 [Karle]
ПутешественникWe’re missing you at the Mist Greg. It looks like you’re really making good time on your daily walks. I hope you’re enjoying it and hope you’re feeling good. I’ll have a drink for you and you can pay me back when you get home. 😂😂😂. Stay safe.
