Pressing Pause in Burgos

Taking a few days of “rest”, only hiking around 9-15k for a few days due to sickness, unfortunately put us behind in our timeline which forced us to make the difficult decision to take a taxi for a very short section (30k) of our Camino.

Even though in the grand scheme of things this is a very small part of our journey, it was still a choice we had hoped not to have to make and we both had a pit in our stomachs as we passed by our fellow pilgrims walking while we wizzed by. Everything happens for a reason and in the end, it was the best choice for healing. ❤️‍🩹

A lot of pilgrims we have met along the way are either walking their Camino with an open ended timeline or have given themselves much more time than we were able dedicate.

As I (Aimee) write this post a few days later, I am now feeling much better and we are back on track to finish our Camino by our deadline 🤞🏻. Thank you for the well wishes!Read more
