I can’t go past a truckies cafe! After a strenuous 2 km time for coffee. Besides, I know there are no other refueling possibilities between here and Castilblanco. It is countryside all theもっと詳しく

Today was simply stunning. Sunny, but with a cool breeze, firstly olive groves, then orange groves and then kilometres of beautiful path through a garden of wildflowers. Every few steps I’d stop andもっと詳しく

A lovely days walk again, through the Sierra Norte National Park, filled with wildflowers and lush green grass. The park does have private landholdings, strictly regulated, so they can graze theirもっと詳しく

Set out from Al Real in crisp cold weather. The skies are quite spectacular in this weather - cold air streams must be interesting the cloud patterns. Again, another beautiful day of walking, for theもっと詳しく

Today was a day that I’ll remember forever. A day of thin places. Moments of sheer joy. I walked most of the 22km alone - apart from an eagle soaring over me - and was absorbed by the beauty aroundもっと詳しく
旅行者 Good to hear it is all going well. I think most of those trees dotted around in the middle of pastures are oaks - the same ones that produce the acorns that eventually end up as jamon iberico!

Wow! What a gem. No wonder it is a world heritage site.
The day started early, leaving our rather primitive albergue before dawn. There was a wedding last night and the locals seem to celebrate byもっと詳しく
旅行者 Good morning, Jill. What splendid photos. I wonder whether the citizens of Merida realise how rich in history their home is. You look happy as do fellow pilgrims. Back from flying visit to Brisbane for Heidi’s birthday. She was quiet unwell but managed some fun once loaded with sugar.

The stork season is well and truly here. So many flying overhead - I can’t tell if they are scouting for food or flying further north. But certainly every storks nest I pass, and there are many, isもっと詳しく
旅行者 Great to see that the Albergue has developed it was very primitive when I was first there. Well done on fording the arroyo!
旅行者 The albergue is not wonderful. If I could find a broom (I can’t) I’d give it a sweep. And the bins are all full. Cleanliness is not its strong point. Still, the beds have the good blue plastic covers, the shower was hot, and there is a line outside in the hot sun!
旅行者 The municipal was closed last October when I passed through. So I stayed at the private place Luz del Camino. Very pleasant.
