Boadilla - Frómista

Hi ALL
My START was in Boadilla 10 Km before Fromista .

My trek yesterday was from the beautiful Albergue En El Camino, Boadilla del Camino, Palencia, Spain to Monestario del San Zoilo
It was 25 Km mostly flat terrain. Only one bar along the way was a welcome stop for Brucie. 
Intermittent showers with poncho on poncho off scenario. Lucky Brucie met and talked for some time with a Danish lady called Charlotte (60Yo) and a 23-year-old Lass called Alyssa

Attached is a photograph of the day (WELL NOT QUITE) is my Melbourne friend. (for only an hour or so) Bronwyn (67) who is a unhappy Pilgrim. Her major problem was the app that came from RAW TRAVEL. It would seem to be cutting out on her iPhone The stunning tattoo that she had on her leg attracted me. Not in the usual fashion, but a good design well execute.
Privately. I wouldn't want to see it on any of the ladies that I know it's more a tattoo (with her mini skirt) for a Lady of the nights !
Picture attached..

Apologies for not posting for too many days but they have been filled and sometimes tiring like yesterday's 25 km. That 25 km felt like 37 km of walking on concrete. I needed a long hot bath to relax my calves and my right knee. All good now except for my accommodation. Pilgrims don't complain. But the Albergue that I had for 2 days before. THIS place I'm in now zis something like Old World First class Hotel. It's a monastery. 

The last place I stayed is called En El Camino Boadilla. Stacked with pilgrims. Totally enjoying themselves. Good Pilgrim meals and a lovely atmosphere.
This Camino I to spend two nights at each village. This gives me a chance to get the Sketchbook out. Also to enjoy the culture and relax my sore legs. Where is roughly 4-5 days (with breaks) before I reach Leon.
NOTE:, The second last photograph is of two ladies and me hugging both of them. When I told the questioning and welcoming owner of the Bar that Yes I was a Pilgrim and to his second question I said yes I was 89. BOOM he told his wife, his daughter and the whole place. Lucky Brucie was. then surrounded by his wife and his daughter who wanted the the owner to take a photograph of the three of us. It was a happy situation.

PPS. Oops I gave myself a ❤️ Like
Blame my fumbling fingers

Enjoy the photos🙏Read more
