    A few steep hills on this leg. Then downhill into Ages. Didn’t see an Alberque I wanted to stay in there. Kept walking and found this one in Atapuerca. That gets me at about 14 miles from Burgos. Cassie will be getting off the bus there from Madrid in a day and a half.. Can’t wait to see her and share all I’ve learned.

    Walked with a great bunch of ladies today. Lisa, Hiedi, Grace and Mary. From Texas and Saint Luis. They played music by Kansas and we sang as we went.

    A little rain spattered today, but hardly enough to don the rain poncho. Didn’t get sunny and hot until a mile before stopping point. My legs are getting used to the miles and my feet barely yell at me anymore. With the exception of a tiny blister on my little piggy.
