Arrived to our place for the night. Rest and shower. We have 2 apartments with 3 bedrooms each. We're down to 6 persons, so we each have our own room tonight.

The walk today was good. There are times when I feel strong and am plowing through. And then other times I hit a wall and feel like I'm dragging. The feet are hurting the ankles, various parts of my body take their turns complaining.

It rained again this afternoon, but then the sun came out for the last hour of the walk, and it was delightful. We stopped at a Cafe for a drink and then walked the final 50 min in.

I realized that the kilometer markers on the Camino signs show how many kilometers are left to Santiago de Compostela. It took 4 days of walking before I realized that. I think it was the comma in the number instead of a period for the decimal point that mixed me up. But I found out that I wasn't the only one, so that makes me feel better.

I really miss music. Tomorrow, I think I'm going to use my bt ear pieces. I've got some music downloaded that can play in airplane mode.

The song that was stuck in my head today was Only You by The Revivalists. Czytaj więcej

What a beautiful town.

I have to say the food in Spain keeps getting better and better. In the beginning, I have to admit, it was sub-par, but tonight's dinner was awesome. We ordered several dishes and shared them. Pimientos de padron, vegetables, potatoes, calamari, frittata, and the very best were the mussels. We played Russian Roulette with the peppers, and they were all mild.

Beautiful views as we sipped wine on the river, passing people soaking their feet in the hot spring, enjoying an awesome dinner, and walking back to the apartment in the rain... all makes for a great evening.

Tomorrow ... another 19 km. Czytaj więcej

Slow like a Grandma
30 marca, Hiszpania ⋅ 🌧 48 °F
It's been raining all day; temp started to drop and rain getting heavier. so I decided to stop at a cafe for a cafe con leche.

I'm by myself. Been listening to my downloaded music this morning, which helps a lot. Snapping pictures along the way.

Two young women in their 20s who have met previously on the Camino joined again to share lunch. I overheard one say to the other that she is walking very slowly, "like a grandma".

I found a blister this morning. Left foot, just under my big toe. Put mole tape over it.

We are not walking tomorrow, so we'll be two nights at the next accommodation. I'm looking forward to the rest. Czytaj więcej

Os Lambrons, Padron
30 marca, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 50 °F
I walked through rain, mud and more mud, a carnival, and hail and into the country, goats running wild, way off the Camino... guided by Google. I had no idea if I was going to the right place or not. I was ahead of the group because i didn't get the memo on the stopping point. One minute there was hail and then 5 minutes later the sun came out, just as I was walking into the place. Os Lambrons.

I walked around looking for signs of life and found a woman in the back room in a courtyard. She confirmed that I was indeed at the right location. I'm here, almost 13 miles today.

Everyone else arrived. We settled, showered, had wine, and met for dinner. Very nice evening. Early to bed at 2104. Tonight is daylight savings time for Spain, so we lose an hour tonight. Dejavu. Twice in one month. Who knew they had daylight savings time over here.

Tomorrow is a rest day. Breakfast at 10, so we'll get good rest tonight. A few of us are mending foot injuries. I'm doing ok. The one blister... but have not done a thorough assessment yet.

It was a big day, a hard day. But we're here and only one more day to walk... on Monday.

Here's a good one...

Rejuvenation
31 marca, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 52 °F
This Easter is a day of rejuvenation and rebirth, leaving the old behind and looking ahead. Lisa and Dani have planned some special things for us today, including meditation, stretching, a release and burning ceremony, Reiki, and some Cuban African dancing. No walking, thank God!

I'm feeling numb mostly, peaceful, and comfortably numb. I've spent the majority of my life in fight or fight mode, so maybe there's a bit of shock state. So much striving... this is what I'm leaving behind.

Today, we slept in, had coffee and breakfast downstairs. I took a spin around the property, and we had morning meditation.

Half of our group took a taxi into Padron for Easter mass, and the other half remained behind. I stayed behind, had hot tea and and stretched my achy body. We drew seer cards. There is a nice deep bathtub here, so I took a hot bath. I lay here now resting, taking in the sound of the birds, meditative music, and the gentle rain.

The birds and plants are happy as the sun and rain take their turns on stage. And lunch is waiting for us. Czytaj więcej

Rainbow
31 marca, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 48 °F
The most beautiful rainbow came out this evening after our letting go, burning ceremony.

Tomorrow, we finish up our Camino journey with the final 24km.

We've made such amazing friendships this week.

Santiago de Compostela
1 kwietnia, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 52 °F
We arrived! At the moment we arrived, it was gloriously sunny, and we were able to lay down in the square and soak it all up.

The last 3 miles were really tough, and I swear 85% off our walk today was uphill.

The atmosphere at the square was celebratory and fun. There were people laid out in the square, toddlers and dogs chasing pigeons, dancing and singing, a father racing his sons. We ran into people whom we had previously met on the trail multiple times.

Lisa went to get our certificates, and we laid there and took it all in. Czytaj więcej
