Los Arcos to Logrono
17 september 2016, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C
Wed, Sept 14: 29 km today! Weather was lovely with some nice clouds to keep the heat down. Many beautiful vistas and continue to pass through vineyards, rolling wheat fields, and olive tree groves.
Passed thru Viana where they were having a festival and got to see them block up the main street shops and the corridor and then run a few bulls through on their way to the bull arena. Was told that in these smaller towns they don't typically have bull fights, but instead, various games of bravery where the last person standing in the ring with the bull is the winner. Took a good video, but now see I only have the option to load pictures, not videos. 😒Läs mer

Logrono to Najera
17 september 2016, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C
Thurs, Sept 15: 30 km, baby (almost 19 miles), longest day yet! Another day scattered with beautiful clouds, perfect for the walk. More great views and towns to pass through. Pic #2 is just a fantastic giant bull cut from metal, standing on the hilltop. Pic #4 is a man who has been volunteering on the Camino for over 30 years. Today he is stamping our Peregrino Credentials (we collect stamps along the way as proof of where we've been).Läs mer

More Santo Domingo
17 september 2016, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Fri, Sept 16

The albergue we stayed at as well as the cathedral in Santo Domingo, both have chickens! In the albergue they were out back, but the cathedral had a place for them inside. No time here to give you the story behind this, but it's a pretty good one.

Pic#2 rooftops as seen from cathedral tower

Another festival tonight. Najera also had one last night, but the locals there didn't seem quite as excited about it as they did here. Fun music and dancing in the plaza! The locals enjoy a drink called kalimotxo - red wine + coke. Will give it a try at some point.Läs mer

Sun, Sept 18: A little over 29 km today, beginning in a crisp morning air. Another amazing walk. Legs and feet feeling very tired tonight. Tomorrow headed for Burgos & planning a 2-night stay, possibly splurging for a hotel room.

I hope you ordered a bocadillo there. Best sandwich on the trail. Super cool on the inside too.

Kathy Thielen Definitely delicious bocadillas, though it's become hard to pinpoint where the very best ones have been at this point!

Tues, Sept 20: Again, wow. Burgos is my favorite "large" city so far along the Camino. The cathedral inside was almost too overwhelming to capture with my silly cell phone camera. Check out a couple of highlights from the day and evening though.

Burgos to Hontanas
21 september 2016, Spanien ⋅ 🌙 15 °C
Wed, Sept 21: developed a bit of tendonitis just above my left foot so had my backpack courriered today to meet me at the albergue in Hontanas where we finally stopped after a 31 km (just over 19 miles) walk. First day walking through the mesetas . . . open, flat stretch of land with huge blue sky's. Another beautiful day.

Day 7 on the Meseta
27 september 2016, Tyskland ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
Sept 27: Been walking across the Meseta now for one week! Today was a very short 11+ km into Leon where we checked into hotel rooms and are kicking back a little.
Another beautiful city, cathedral and lots of cafes/restaurants. Will be saying goodbye to a couple of folks here after today so may be out celebrating a bit later tonight. Some of us may stay in Leon for one more day . . .

We've been starting out walks each day between 6:30-7:00am when it's still dark out, but one morning we started at 5:30am to get a little more time in under the stars. Below here and in the next post are some pics from along the way (Sept 22-26). Will create new post tomorrow for today's walk into Leon along with a few pics from tonight's celebration (possibly).

Pic #1 a morning mist, leaving
Pic #2 chilling in a great tree at the albergue in Boadilla
Pic #3 passing through Fromista after leaving Boadilla, we cross the lock gates (esclusa) of the Canal de Castillo
Pic #4 sweet dawg friend on the Camino
Pic #5 going through a village after a night in Terradillos, we walked through a courtyard where the trees had been decorated with knitting; definitely reminded me of Portland
Pic #6 a morning sunriseLäs mer
