Our legs are getting used to walking, and boy, does it make a difference. Don't get me wrong, the feet and legs are tired at the end of the day, but most of the soreness is gone.
It was a good dayLäs mer

Well, we've been walking for 2 weeks now with no rest days. Burgos is the biggest city we've been in so far, so it's a good time to take a rest day.

The rest day was great. Slept in, slow walked around town, and took a tour of the cathedral. Probably should have made the effort to see some of the other sights, but the priorities were to give ourLäs mer

Good day of walking. Our legs felt better, the aches and pains were minimal, and it was only 12 miles today. We sent our bags by courier to the albergue just to make sure we tried out our new "feet"Läs mer

Look at all those people out!
ResenärOh my gosh, how fun. What an amazing trip!
ResenärCarrie, that street was amazing. Families young and old all out having a good time. I can get behind this spa ish lifestyle. Lunch runs from 1 ish to 4 ish, then siesta time where businesses close up. Then around 630 (closer to 8pm for most), they open back up for dinner. We're taking naps during siesta, it's nice.
