Day 21. Burgos.

Our last night in Burgos! Our 36 wedding anniversary as well. When we married, we backpacked through Europe but not quite the same way. We have enjoyed our time in Burgos. The residents seem to know how to slow down and be more casual. They are conscientious about recycling and keeping trash off the streets.
We spent our day looking at the Evolution Museum. A modern four floor building with much information. We spent some time in the park eating grapes and apples. Steve was intrigued with a “statue” that turned out to be a mime.
We had a nice dinner and topped it off with churros and warm chocolate sauce.
We are now getting our backpacks ready for tomorrow. We have tuna and bread, fruit, nuts and plenty of water for our day. We will be starting the Meseta, a plateau of wheat fields. Known for not having trees, or rest areas. We will get an early start and hope to get much of it done by early afternoon.
Steve’s feet are good. I am now on a steroid dose pack for the plantar fasciitis. Hope that and ibuprofen will get me on down the road.
Grateful for this guy I married so many years ago, grateful for the steroids and grateful to be back on the road again……Read more
