I’m so glad to be in Leon!
Arrived today through a monotonous metropolitan area and light rain. After 25 km, I was so ready for the slog to be over. The last couple of days have been less than scenic with most of the walking beside roadways. Getting to the old town here took almost an hour of unattractive cityscape, but now I’m in a lovely spot in the plaza mayor. It rained a bit more and it’s been very cool all day. I haven’t experienced the hot days that I was expecting, and I think it will only get cooler and rainier as I go toward Galicia. But fingers crossed the weather stays reasonably good. Soon, there will be less than 300 km to go!Read more
TravelerSuch FABULOUS photos! Did you by any chance see the historical light show outside the Leon cathedral at night? Maybe that isn't a thing any more - but it was amazing. Glad you are making such progress. Galicia is magical - deep trails, great to take lots of photos! Also, leafy shade, hills.... (-:
