Foncebadon

A brisk walk out of Astorga this morning as we had over 26 km to do. 537 km done now of 777! Tomorrow we reach the highest point of the whole route - the Cruz de Ferro at 1,505m. It’s the place pilgrims often bring a stone from home and leave it at the cross. A way to lay down before God burdens, fears, sorrows etc. Tonight we are staying in Foncebadon and battles through swarms of flies to do most of our ascent!
Managed to reconnect with Milena (not seen since Navarrete) and Naomi(not seen since the Pilgrim Office in SJPP!)Read more
