Day 3. Stg 15. Frómista

The quest today was 20 miles.

I connected with one of my dorm mates as i was walking out the door this morning - Iker. He's from San Sebastián which in the northern east part of Spain. He takes a week off every year to walk part of the Camino. Phenomenonl human being. So, much heart and compassion for life. His 5% English, my 5% Spanish, and google translate worked out well. But today was his last day. That's how the Camino works. I will see him again one day.

We ended up catching up to Dawn, who I met yesterday at the castle, and her friend Tanya. Tanya is from Australia and is a joy. We all walked together for 15 miles, and we had such a splendid time chatting and drinking at our restaurant stops.

Once we got to our destination, Tanya and I had a couple cervezas, then we to a grocery to make a group salad. Eating together is always festive.

Today was an absolutely wonderful day. Don't know if it can be beat in the next week. But I'll give it a go. Enjoy!Read more
