Day 11 - To Navarrete

Day 11 - To Navarrete (Monday)
13 km; Difficulty 2/3

Walking these days is a bit tougher than usual. I’m battling a cold which wears me out. My right lower leg, just below my knee, is sore. I think I’m developing a tendinitis.

Today I walked past a fence that was decorated with hundreds of handmade crosses. It went on for kms. Quite obviously done by pilgrims over likely a long time.
A landmark in Spain is the ruins of the “San Juan de Acre Hospital”. It was founded in 1185 and it was intended to be a hostel and provide aid to pilgrims. The floor plan was created in the shape of a cross.
This cow on top of the hill was entering Navarrete. One would think they could get something better to represent them, LOL.
Beautiful church again and Navarrete! They are everywhere; artistic wonders!Read more
