    On the Camino

    June 3, 2025 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    We left Pamplona to do a whole day on the Camino. First stop: El Alto del Perdon or Point of Forgiveness. This is a well photographed pilgrim viewpoint and the site of a Memorial to 92 Franco opposers who were killed. It is 770 meter above sea level. Pointe de Reina is 10 km away along the path of the wind and way of the stars. We were dropped off along the Way and walked through the village of Obanos to our destination on the other side of the 12th century bridge in the village of Pointe de la Reina. We were very fortunate that the rain held off until we were in the bus and on our way to a winery lunch in the country side. After we were done and had just closed the doors to the bus it poured all the way to our next stop! You could not have timed things better!Read more
