• Foncebadon, Cruz de Ferro, Molinaseca

    May 29, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 70 °F

    A magical way to end a magical day. We were on our way to the Cruz before sunrise and were treated to a sky full of glorious color by the time we arrived. Leaving our stones was deeply moving for each of us. What a way for Jav to celebrate his birthday. That was the last and possibly most important ritual of the Camino, other than finishing. I can feel that we are approaching the end of our adventure. 9 more days of walking. We worked hard today on one of our longest descents. Our reward was arriving in the beautiful little town of Molinaseca. They have transformed their river into a swimming pool that runs under an ancient Roman bridge. We had a delicious pilgrims meal at a café on the river that included a plunge pool for soaking tired feet😁 Our accommodations are great! The 4 of us are sharing a 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment in the heart of town,complete with washing machine and clothesline. I wish we were staying longer. Oh, and I think I heard that Kathy might finally get churros mañana 🤞
