Astorga 😊

Day 28/40 though can’t be sure. Had a couple of days walking since we left Leon. Last night was at Villar de Mazarife. Had albergue accommodation. Felt privileged we weren’t in the communal rooms with the bunk beds and people snoring. It’s survival of the fittest in there. Enjoyed a home cooked communal dinner. Met a few more Camino characters today, Half the table were Aussies. Todays walk was on a long straight road. You wouldn’t say it’s boring but you could say monotonous at times. Sometimes you walk along in a bit of a trance. Sometimes I listen to audiobooks when tired. The mornings are the best time to chat to people. In the afternoons it’s often a bit of an effort making conversation when you’re at the 20k stage of your walk. Astorga is a lovely town. It’s starting to feel like we’re in the home stretch. 2 weeks to go. About 260km left I’d guess. The landscape is starting to get more interesting from here, it’s a little hillier too. Gone are the long flat endless plains. Still seeing familiar faces as we go along which is always nice. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️Read more
