Picture postcard day

I am sitting on the terrace outside our room in the hostal at colinas de arriba, as the name suggests, up the top of a hill. The view is stunning, the hostel new and lovely, even though we are in a dorm room slumming it for the first time. Tomorrow is the big day, walking over the old pilgrim hospital route and the pass, which you can only do in good weather so fingers crossed.
Back to today. Another crisp early morning start, uphill nearly all the way. We passed through woods, farmed land and along roads for a while. My feet got a pounding again and are still throbbing. Other than that I guess after 6 days it's getting easier. This camino is much more of a fitness challenge than the others. It is hotter today and the last couple of hours were tough. It is so beautiful though, the photos don't do it justice.Baca selengkapnya
