San Juan de Ortega

Day 15/40 Only 12k again today into San Juan de Ortega. A nice walk starting a bit tough going uphill then peacefully through a forest. Today we had the most rain we’ve had so far and arrived dripping into a very convivial little cafe crammed with pilgrims sheltering from the rain. A restful afternoon coming up then tomorrow we’re heading into Burgos. Burgos is where we started from last year. We’ve been through a lot already crossing the Pyrenees, doing some long days walking, weaving through the countryside in and out of some small cities. We are getting used to the rythmn of our days. The saying goes the Camino up until here it’s all about the body. The physical body adjusting to the stresses and continual demands of what we’re doing. The next section from Burgos, the biggest impact is on the mind. That is where we will notice most shifts in our mental state. Let’s see how that goes. 😁😅Læs mere
