• The Heat Is On!

    17 Mei, Spanyol ⋅ ☁️ 26 °C

    It was a high of 84° during the walk today the morning started out in the low 50s and slow slowly rose to 84 by mid afternoon.

    April and I stayed back for the morning. The rest of the group took off around nine to start out on the way to Padron. We finally left about 1 PM made a stop midway through at a little café where we ran into two women with babies one 16 months old and the other about the same age from Czechoslovakia. they had full backpacks a nice little buggy stroller and are just enjoying the Camino. We were very impressed. They took off shortly after we got there and then came back immediately as they got a flat tire and proceeded to change the flat tire from their stroller. we met another young lady along the path from Scotland named Kate and had a nice conversation with her for an hour or two until she took a break just before entering town. we got to Padrón just after 5 PM were able to check in get cleaned up and be ready for a dinner at 7:30. It seems like everyone’s bodies are starting to acclimate to walking long distances the past couple days. everyone is excited to reach the destination of Campostella de Santiago tomorrow to complete our journey for the majority they completed 125 km Santiago will mark 550 km for myself. Maybe next time I’ll do the Camino Norte, which is 1000 km total. That’s gotta take at least two months.

    It is amazing how through Grace we all have started on our own paths going at our own pace and have all been able to speed up or slow down to walk together as one group the past two days with the exception of myself and April who have dealt with Some logistics. This has been a natural process versus a demand to control the situation.
