• Day 15 Bercianos - Puente Villarente

    May 11–12, 2024 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    32.4 km (449.4 from start). 2065 calories. 40.000 steps. 6 hours on the road. 5.9 km/t

    Late start this morning. Breakfast 07.15 and out on the road at 7.30am. Already there it was warm.

    Walked for 21km without break. 3.5h without stop. Didn’t even feel any discomfort or pain - Camino seems so easy early in the morning.

    Had a great lunch. Love Spanish prices. 2 huge sandwiches, cop coffee, 2 Fanta lemon (of course with sugar) 😇 - all of that for 14€

    Rest of the walk was in much easier tempo and the heat started to be an issue. I could hear the storm behind me. I can deal with rain, snow, high winds and high temperatures. What I don’t like is open road and thunderstorms.

    Made to hostel before the rain. Drinking cold beer and enjoying the garden within hostel. Tomorrow is awaiting another long stage - 33.5 km through Leon.
