Wild day on the Camino with a helicopter rescue of an injured pilgrim who broke his leg on a downhill muddy descent. I was right there when it happened. Quick response and lots of pilgrims helpingLæs mere

Long slog to get there from Uterga...Note to self: never try that again. 30 km with many hills. ‘Bout died!
There was a guy selling hot tea and bananas when I reached the border. Never been so happy to see a cup of tea...
