    D20- Itero de la Vega to Villarmentero d

    2.–3. kesäk. 2024, Espanja ⋅ 🌬 21 °C

    Walked so far - 357 km. 410 km to go.
    We set off this morning around seven. The first stage today was from Itero de la Vega to Boadilla del Camino. The track was very a rocky gravel road but mainly flat through farmland. We stopped at the Hotel en el Camino for coffee and morning tea, a lovely yoghurt cake. From Boardilla del Camino to Fromista the trail started on a gravel path then we followed the dirt path along the canal for a while. The wind was picking up a bit more at this time and had trouble keeping my hat on. A little further along the canal there was a bit of a detour where a new bridge and road was being built across it. We continued along the canal and crossed over the bridge at one of locks and headed into Fromista.This was a good place to stop for lunch and we had the best bacon and egg rolls I’ve ever had at a cafe near the church. The cafe was busy with pilgrims, cyclists and local church goers. Leaving Fromista we walked along the roadway for a while then we crossed onto the gravel path parallel to the road and followed this to Villarmentero de Campos. This was only a little farm town with approx 17 residents, however a few more pilgrims. We opted for the pilgrims menu tonight as wasn’t any other choice in town.Lue lisää

    D19- Hontanas to Itero de la Vega 21.3 k

    1.–2. kesäk. 2024, Espanja ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C

    Walked so far 334.4 km. 432.6km to go km
    After a lovely night at the Albergue Santo Brigida we set off about 7am after a quick coffee. It wasn’t just as cold as the day before but there was still a chill in the air. After 5km we came to the ruins of San Anton monastery and pilgrims hospital. There is an 12 bed Albergue run by volunteers on site. We ventured a few more kms and stopped for breakfast at a cafe as we entered the town of Castrojeriz. It was a fair sized town but not much activity to be seen, maybe being a Saturday morning everyone was still indoors. Leaving Castrojeriz we walked for a bit then saw a sign that said we had a 1050m climb up the Alto de Mostelares. It was a long windy km ascent and at the top there is a picnic area with beautiful views over the countryside we had left behind. The descent on the other side was much steeper but the scenery was amazing. We continued on the trail a bit further and saw the old pilgrim hospital of San Nicolas and now a small albergue. Just after this we cross the Puente Fitero and we are now in the region of Palencia. Our albergue Puente Fitero was 1.5 km after this, very nice albergue and we had a room for five which we shared with Chris and Kate. We ate lasagna for dinner washed down with the best sangria we have had so far.Lue lisää

    D18- Burgos to Hontanas 31.5km

    31. toukok.–1. kesäk. 2024, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C

    We had an early start this morning, had a tub of yoghurt then left our accommodation around 0620. We were meeting Chris and Kate at their apartment as we were all heading to Hontanas together. We decided we would have our bags transported to our next destination as the walk today was over 30km. Garry was nursing a cold so it was a good decision. John was also walking with us this morning. We wandered through the streets of Burgos past the Catedral de Santa Maria de Burgos. We walked on past the university and out of town. It was very cold when we left and the cold winds stung our hands. Tardajos was the first town we came to today after about 11 kms. We were ready for a coffee by this time so stopped at the first cafe we came to. We walked on through the town and came to the church where birds were nesting on the roof. We walked along the edge of the road between Tardajos and the next town of Rabe de Las Calzadas, only a further 2.1 kms. We didn’t stop in town but as were leaving town we entered the little church and was greeted by a lovely old nun who gave us a blessing and a huge hug before sending us on our way. From Rabe de Las Calzadas to the next town of Hornillos de Camino the fields of wheat and barley were dancing in the wind, lucky for us the wind was at our backs. We had a steep descent into Hornillos de Camino which aggravated Simon’s knees a bit. At the bottom of the hill just before town there was a field of poppies so we all stopped and posed for some pics. We stopped for lunch at a cafe in front of the church and took off our shoes to air our feet. From here to Hontanas was another 10.7 km and more of the same scenery, gravel path with fields of wheat and barley and the giant wind turbines on the hills. We seemed to walk forever with no sight of a town. Hontanas remains hidden until you see the church steeple suddenly appear out of nowhere and with another steep descent you arrive at the town. Our albergue is near the top of town and we were all ready for a sit down and a cold drink. We had the pilgrims meal in the Albergue, three courses, wine, bread and water for 15 euros.Lue lisää

    D17- Burgos

    30. toukokuuta 2024, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

    Today was a rest day so we slept until about nine. After breakfast we went to the Burgos Cathedral and spent an hour or more looking around, it is absolutely enormous and so beautiful. On leaving the cathedral we bumped into John, another pilgrim from Florida, who we have crossed paths with since Orisson. We all went for lunch at a nearby restaurant. While we were eating lunch many we saw Amy who was on her way to a hotel just on the other side of Burgos. Amy sat with us for a while then went on her way. We will no doubt catch up with her on the trail in the next day or two. After lunch we walked around a bit more through the beautiful park and picked up some paella at the local supermarket for dinner. We went to the pilgrims mass in the cathedral at 7.30pm and we were all blessed by the priest. Afterwards we went to the bar where Chris and Kate were staying and had sangria and pinchos to end our stay in Burgos.Lue lisää

    D16- Atapuerca to Burgos 20km

    29.–31. toukok. 2024, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C

    When we left Atapuerca this morning there was a chill in the air. We set off through the village turned left and started our climb. The track was a mix of gravel, dirt and loose stones/rocks. We made our way to the top and looking back we had a lovely view of the sunrise and the village below. There was a memorial at the top, a large wooden cross with a mound of stones around it that have been left by pilgrims as they pass through. We continued on this path and after about 4.4km we pass the village if Villalval but there was nothing open there so at the 5.8km mark came to the town of Cardenuela Riopico and found the most amazing cafe. There were spreads of bacon and egg baguettes, lovey chocolate croissants and other pastries. We enjoyed a bacon and egg baguette between the two of us and bought a pastry and croissant to take away for later. Continuing on after our late breakfast the dirt track stopped and we were now walking on asphalt, luckily there wasn’t much traffic. Apparently there was two ways to reach Burgos, one through the industrial area and the other turning left and following the river. Unfortunately we missed the left turn so we walked on concrete all the way to Burgos and to our accommodation. Very hard on the legs and very boring. We dropped our bags at the apartment and walked around town for a bit. After a shower we went to the Museum of Human Evolution. We spent an hour and a half there and thoroughly enjoyed it.Lue lisää

    D14- Belogrado to Villafranca de Oca 11.

    27.–28. toukok. 2024, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C

    Short walk today and we had a little sleep in this morning as we had accommodation booked at Villafranca. It was raining a little when we left and looked very misty around the hills. We walked the gravel path with the crops of wheat and rapeseed either side of us. After 4.7km we hit the town of Tosantos expecting to have our morning coffee and breakfast. However, when we got there nothing was open so off we go for another 2km and found a nice place at Villambistia where we had huge baguettes with ham and cheese and long awaited coffee. It was still drizzling when we got back on the road so we put our ponchos back on and headed for Villafranca. We stayed at the Albergue de San Anton Abad which is part of the Hotel San Anton Abad. It used to be a pilgrims hospital and was built in the 14th century by Queen Juana Manuel who was the wife of Henry II to service the poor and people passing through. It was renovated and now a three star hotel is in its place.Lue lisää

    D13- Granon to Belorado 15.6km

    26.–27. toukok. 2024, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    We left Granon about 8 o’clock after a little sleep in as we had a slightly shorter day, only 15.6km. We had some apricots, banana and cherries that we had bought the day before in Santo Domingo. We had these for breakfast along with some nice cookies and chocolate pastry from the bakery at Granon. Clear sky today and we saw many aeroplanes flying in all directions as we are nearer to Madrid now. The poppies still separate the crops of barley and wheat from the gravel road we walked on. We left the region of Rioja today and entered Castilla and Lyon, no more vineyards for a few weeks but lots of beautiful farmland. We stopped at Redecilla del Camino for our second breakfast. The next town we passed through was Viloria del Rioja but didn’t stop. We carried on for another 7.1km until we came to Villamayor and we stopped at the albergue for our lunch and saw that our New Zealand friends, Chris,Kate and Amy were there so we chatted with them for a while. Belorado was only another 4.8km mostly on gravel road. The albergue we were staying was really nice, power points at all beds, 3 floors and also had a garden area with a covered pool. I got in but only up to my waist but it was refreshing for the feet and legs. We had a lovely pilgrims meal in the restaurant, 3 courses and bread, wine and water included for 17 euros. We went for a walk around town but only bars and cafes open as it was a Sunday.Lue lisää

    D12- Azofra to Granon 22.8km

    25.–26. toukok. 2024, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C

    Although it was quiet and it was two beds to a room I had the worst sleep so far. I also slipped on the last two steps when I came downstairs and bruised my tail bone. After a breakfast of yoghurt and banana that I had picked up in the little grocery store the day before we headed off for the day. We left the albergue just before seven and as we left town we were greeted by a sea of poppies. We continued on with an easy 9km walk and arrived at the town of Ciruena. The book described this town as a ghost town and that’s exactly what we found. Apparently they built multiple apartment blocks, something to do with the golf club and most of the time they lay empty. The only other people we saw were pilgrims. We found Jacob’s Bar before leaving town and had our morning coffee here before continuing on for another 6km until we reached Santo Domingo de La Calzada. St Dominic dedicated his life to improving the route for pilgrims in the 11th century by building roads, bridges, a hospital and a church. It was lovely walking into these towns to the chiming of church bells. We walked around town for a while admiring the architecture, so many beautiful buildings and fountains. We stopped for lunch at a little cafe in the square, took our shoes off and rested our weary legs. After lunch we headed towards Granon where we were staying for the night. The gravel path was lined with wild flowers and the scenery just beautiful with fields of wheat and barley. We stayed in accommodation near the Church of John the Baptist in a three storey home that had been turned into an albergue for pilgrims. There was bunks and beds everywhere but it was cool and quiet inside due to the thick stoned walls.Lue lisää

    D11- Navarrete to Azofra 22km

    24.–25. toukok. 2024, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 10 °C

    We were up around 0630 this morning and had a quick breakfast of toast and jam in our albergue. We met up with Amy again as she was staying in the same albergue. We walked up past the church and followed arrows and headed out of town. The walk today was mainly on a wide gravel road through Rioja vineyards. We still have poppies and daises lining the path along the way. We walked most of the day with Amy. We arrived at Najera mid morning and stopped at the first cafe we came to. We had juice, coffee and pinchos and everything was delicious. We finished off with a fruit Madeira cake that I had bought the day before at Viana, so we are definitely not starving. After refreshments we still had about 6 or 7 km to reach Azofra. The road was relatively flat through more vineyards, however the landscape changed a bit after Najera. We still had the healthy vines but now we had a backdrop of red dirt and very stony in areas. We are staying in the municipal albergue tonight and has over 100 beds with only two beds per room. There was a plunge pool in the courtyard with icy water so we all soothed our tired feet. We met up with Chris and Kate again as they were staying at the same albergue. We walked around town and found a field of poppies. We had pizza for dinner at a cafe and we thought it hilarious as when we ordered our pizzas he pulled them out from the freezer. We were expecting the worst but they actually turned out to quite nice.Lue lisää
