Hornillos del Camino
5. oktober 2023, Spania ⋅ ☀️ 50 °F
This morning we left Burgos, a big medieval city, and walked out into the rolling plain called La Meseta where we will be for several days.

Last night and this morning we were able to get up close to the cathedral in Burgos. It was built in the 1200’s, and it is huge! Burgos has lots of pretty green spaces. At night the streets were full of people out for a good time.

As we walked out of Burgos this morning we got into the country really fast. We saw another shepherd with his sheep. It’s really cool to watch the shepherd direct the dogs who in turn let the sheep know what’s what.

On the way out of one of the two tiny pueblos we visited between Burgos and here (Hornillos del Camino) we saw a little chapel open so we went in to check it out. There was a tiny nun in there who put her hands on our heads and prayed for us to have a safe Camino! She even gave us these little religious medals to wear around our necks.

It’s very isolated out here where we’ll be for the next few days. We are still in a private room but in an albergue. Tonight we’re having communal dinner with about forty people at the big tables here.Les mer

Day 9 - Burgos & Renaissance Fair
8. oktober 2023, Spania ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F
Planned rest day. After completing a full week of walking over 150km, we finally had a rest day. We slept in and then decided to take a bus from Logrono to Burgos (2hrs). This saved us 4-5 days of walking mostly flat along highway. For two non public transportation people we executed flawlessly. We saw our Camino friends walking along the road while munched on pringles and sped on to Burgos with a little sadness in our heart. Burgos was alive on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.

There was a huge renaissance fair outside of the most beautiful church we have seen so far on the Camino, the Cathedral of St Mary. The Cathedral of Saint Mary in Burgos is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture and one of the most magnificent monuments on the Camino de Santiago. Joan and I walked exploring the many exquisite chapels spanning centuries. Truly unbelievable our pics don’t do it justice.

We ended the night with street Epanadas and a cold beer and as we went to bed around 9 pm the city was alive and just getting started for a traditional Sunday night in Spain.Les mer

If there was an award for the longest amount of time a tourist has spent in the Burgos cathedral I think I’d be a contender. I am thankful for Burgos for giving me a day of rest, good food, and of course the cathedral.Les mer

Was a gift. I'm a city boy and it's taken me 46 years to figure it out. These small Spanish towns suck the life out of me and then I walk into Burgos and come alive.

The Burgos Cathedral was quite a sight. A monument to power masquerading as religious art.Les mer

Peregrina888 Competition between Bishops or Archbishops or whatever made for some spectacular chapels in Burgos Cathedral! I spent two hours in there alone just agog at the splendor.

Morgens in Atapuerca kurzer Moment der Wut, weil ein Pilger uns zwar versehentlich in der Herberge eingeschlossen hat und nach kurzem Versuch der Befreiung einfach abgehauen ist. Zum Glück war noch jemand vor der Tür, der unsere Ausbruchsversuche bemerkt hat und uns rausgelassen hat (sperriges Schloss). Kein Kaffee in der besten Panaderia der Gegend, der Wirt hat verschlafen.....Julie kommt nur mühsam voran: Shin splits! Wir sind also sehr langsam durch Atapuercas Hochebene getrödelt (wichtige Ausgrabungsstätte!) und nach einem schier endlosen Spaziergang durch Burgos Vorstädte in Burgos angekommen. Nur zu viert in der Herberge ist mal eine ganz andere Erfahrung! Viel Ruhe genossen und ein fantastisches Quesadilla zum Mittagessen! Die Kathedrale ist natürlich beeindruckend!Les mer

Achat de chandail à manche longue pour se protéger de la température froide à venir.

Visite de la cathédrale de Burgos, une église médiévale riche de trésors semblables au Vatican.
L'abondance accumulée depuis des siècles contre 10 millions d'humains meurent chaque année.

Demain hontanas et le début de la Mesata espagnole à 4 c jusqu'à 10 heures.Les mer

Reisende Un congé dans une si belle ville, Priceless 👌 avant de parcourir la Meseta avec ses nombreux défis. Comme tu l'as dit, la richesse de la cathédrale, comme au Vatican, et les derniers villages traversés frappés par l'économie, donnent à réfléchir! Buen Camino pour le début de la Mesata ♥️♥️

Arco de Santa Maria

Arco de Santa María in Burgos, Spain, is one of the twelve medieval gates the city had during the middle ages. Built sometime in XIV-XV century
It was rebuilt by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor during the 16th century after the local rulers of the city supported him during the Revolt of the Comuneros. On the facade of the arch appear people of importance to the city of Burgos and CastileLes mer

Die Kathedrale ist schon mächtig, dass muss man neidlos anerkennen. Wahnsinnig wieviele Kapellen es innerhalb dieser Kathedrale gibt, jeder mit viel Geld hat sich hier ein Denkmal gesetzt. Wieder viel Blink Blink aber trotzdem beeindruckend und schön anzuschauen. Der Detailreichtum ist unglaublich!!!
Die Bilder sind nur ein kleiner Ausschnitt…Les mer

Itero de la Vega - Hostel Puente Fitero
28. september 2019, Spania ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F
The silent alarm went off at 6:30am but I didn't rouse anyone until 7am. We had breakfast in the hostel and then headed off to get our bikes at 9am. If I could go back in time, I would have hailed a damn taxi but I didn't. We're doing every step of this Camino under our own power unless we suffer some horrific unforseen accident. Today was hell. My Nether regions are screaming loud for all to hear and no amount of wine has drowned out their cries (I tried at dinner). We didn't meet our goal of Boadillo which is a real bummer because I wanted to catch up with our friend Tom who stayed there tonight. We did run into two friends that we met our first night in SJPP. We had a hill from hell finish us off this afternoon after we had already biked 24 miles. It was brutal, tears were shed, and I never want to do that again. We're in a quiet room with 4 individual beds. Mia is tucked in beside me because she had the hardest day and deserves to sleep with her mama.

La alarma silenciosa sonó a las 6:30 a.m. pero no desperté a nadie hasta las 7 a.m. Desayunamos en el hostal y luego salimos a buscar nuestras bicicletas a las 9 am. Si pudiera retroceder en el tiempo, habría tomado un maldito taxi pero no lo hice. Estamos haciendo cada paso de este Camino bajo nuestro propio poder a menos que suframos un horrible accidente imprevisto. Hoy fue el infierno. Mis regiones abisales están gritando fuerte para que todos lo escuchen y ninguna cantidad de vino ha ahogado sus gritos (lo intenté en la cena). No alcanzamos nuestro objetivo de Boadillo, que es un verdadero lástima porque quería alcanzar a nuestro amigo Tom que se quedó allí esta noche. Nos encontramos con dos amigos que conocimos nuestra primera noche en SJPP. Tuvimos una maldita colina que nos terminó esta tarde después de que ya habíamos andado en bicicleta 24 millas. Fue brutal, se derramaron lágrimas y nunca quiero volver a hacerlo. Ahora estamos en una habitación tranquila con 4 camas individuales. Mia está acostada a mi lado porque tuvo el día más difícil y merece dormirse al lado su mamá.Les mer
