Day 8 Azqueta to Sansol
28. syyskuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ⛅ 59 °F
We are so grateful for the wonderful weather! We were delighted to find a double decker bus that a German couple had converted to a cafe on the bottom and living quarters up top. They are making their way to Santiago as part of a documentary. Kim and I had a milkshake for breakfast. Julie a cappuccino with scallop shell design froth.We also were surprised to find an accordion player on a bench near a vinyard. The midpoint food truck was missing so we ate lunch in Los Arcos. We took a nice break there. Then on to Sansol.Lue lisää

Day 9 Sansol to Longrono
29. syyskuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 57 °F
We were blessed with another outstanding day of sunshine. We missed our breakfast stop but not too far up the road came to a cute little "snack shack" along the trail. There was coffee, fresh squeezed juice, fresh fruit, and pastries. We also had a missed turn that required a bit of backtracking and off trail trekking... 😆 Got to Longrono early enough to do a little exploring. Incredibly beautiful central church. It is Friday night, so the streets, shops, bars and restaurants were bustling. Great people watching from our balcony over Calle Portales.Lue lisää

We got a later start, so we decided not to go as far. We walked through more vineyards and saw grapes being transported to wineries. There was also a nice shady walk along a reservoir where we came upon the double decker bus cafe again.
We passed the archeological remains of a pilgrims hospital.
We had a 360 view from the park in Naverrete. The city was alive with celebration....a special mass, church bells, music and fireworks well past midnight!Lue lisää

Day 11 Navarrete to Zofra
2. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ 🌙 57 °F
We wanted to get on the Camino a little earlier today. But the couple that ran the Albergue were late opening so we couldn't get our laundry to finish packing up. They probably didn't get enough sleep either because the fireworks, music and festival activities went on until 2:00 am. We walked about 3.5 miles to Ventosa and stopped for breakfast. We enjoyed our continued journey through rolling hills and vineyards in the Rioja region.Lue lisää

Day 12 Azofra to Granon
2. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 55 °F
We got a good start this morning. Found a nice little park to "lounge" in just before Ciruena. Then we headed to Santo Domingo de la Calzada. We had a delicious lunch...we shared some Calamari, Kim had a lovely goat cheese salad. Julie had salad with tuna, and I had a red pepper rellano stuffed shrimp and monkfish. We visited the church of St. John the Baptist and learned about the legend of the miraculous chicken and why the church is affectionately called the " Chicken church" and live chickens are kept there. We stayed in Granon at Albergue Carresquedo.Lue lisää

Day 13 Granon to Tosantos
3. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 57 °F
Today was much cooler, with a cloud cover most of the day. We have left the Rioja region and crossed into Castilla and Leon. This area has acres and acres of sunflowers. We missed them in bloom though. We walked through numerous small villages and had lunch in Belorado. We had delicious salads with prawns, salmon and avocado. We met up with "the last patrol", our veteran guardian angels again. We also had a nice family style/home cooked meal at our Albergue Los Arancones and met up with our French friend Jackie. The albergue was Les than half full.Lue lisää

Day 14 Tosantos to Atapuerca
4. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
Only 548 more kilometers to go... 😆 the first church we saw today was built right into the rocks above Tosantos. We climbed up a very steep ridge to a long forested path. Which kept us cool throughout the day. There was a unique refreshment stop surrounded by the artistic creations of the vender. We had lunch in San Juan de Ortega. We met up with our ethereal friend Silvie from France. We ended the day in Atapuerca in a very rustic Albergue called Hostel La Plazuepa Verde. Near the town is an archeological site where the oldest human remains in Europe were discovered going back 1.5 million years.Lue lisää

Matkaaja I was sitting at a table in the upstairs common area and this guy climbed through the window and after feeding him some cat food Kim had for strays, he jumped up on my lap and start purring. I set him on my bed quilt to finish what I was dung and he immediately fell asleep...I think I have a companion for the night.

Day 15 Atapuerca to Burgos
5. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 54 °F
From Atapuerca we had a bit of a rocky climb which leveled off at this large cross. We walked through a few small villages today, had a break in Cardenuela Riopoco...best tortilla so far. There are two routes approaching Burgos, the river route is the preferred way, but because of some construction it was not well marked and many of missed the entrance. The alternative was a long walk on pavement through the industrial outskirts of the city and the crowded downtown commerce area. The light at the end of the tunnel did not disappoint, as Kim had booked a room in the historic Norte y Londres Hotel. It is the oldest hotel on the Camino and has been beautifully restored and is located very near the Cathedral Santa Maria. We are spending an extra day here to explore the sites and rest the dogs.Lue lisää

Day 16 Burgos
6. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F
We took an extra day in Burgos to do some site seeing, replenish some essentials, and recharge. There was not much rest however, as we packed a lot into the day. There was a Medieval Festival starting, so there were lots of vendors to browse. The Cathedral Santa Maria which opened in 1260 is spectacular and we spent a good amount of time there. We made a run out to Decathlon (sort of like Spain's version of REI). We hiked up to a castle 🏰 above the city where the views were amazing, had a sampling of Tapas for dinner, then repacked our backpacks for the morning 🌅Lue lisää
Matkaaja These all are amazing pictures. I'm glad you took the day to enjoy it. Looks like you got some miles in touring the town.

Day 17 Burgos to Hornillos del Camino
7. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ 🌙 52 °F
We left Burgos just as it was turning light. We came across a very " blingy" mosaic Pilgrim. We are now venturing into a region known as the Maseta....rolling hills and long flat stretches with sparse villages. We walked past a lot of murals in Tardajos and stopped there for brunch. The highlight of the day though was stopping at Ermita de Nuestra Senora de Monasterio, a very small church in the village of Rabe de Las Calzadas. We were given a small medallion around our necks then blessed and hugged by the sweetest little nun...It brought tears to my eyes. We ended the day in a place called Hornillos del Camino, where the owner of a small hostel/hotel picked us up and took us 2.6 k to the village of Isar. Accommodations on the Maseta are harder to come by because the distances are longer and albergues fewer.Lue lisää
