      Day 18

      10 september 2022, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

      Fair to say I woke up feeling a bit tired this morning.. I’m no party popper and I love a good band!… but!.. 3am really is kind of late to finish playing… especially when I’m getting up soon after 6.. but hey ho…
      Waiting to go into breakfast .. it’s always a busy one.. a guy that had said hello last night at dinner, asked if I was going the whole distance… I said I was, asked if he was, he asked where I’d started, I said St John, asked where he had… he said Germany!! I sort of blurted / squeaked out WHAT 😮.. he then asked if he could join me for breakfast!! Feeling a tad rude about my response, I said yes of course!!😬
      Turns out, Norbert, from Bavaria, set off walking from Germany, to do the Camino!! He’s a bit tired ( really??!! ) and had lots if blisters.. but hoping to finish by the end of September as he’s flying back on 2nd October.. what a guy!!! I imagine I’ll catch up with him again ( he’s said he’s stayed in a few of the same places as me up to now??!.. who knew?! ) .. he’s staying in a monastery tonight and I’d love to hear about it.
      He must have seen my three legs on my rucksack as he seemed to know I was from the Isle of Man, and said it had always been a dream of his to have raced the TT, but it just hadn’t worked out.. what a small world we live in..
      The walk today wasn’t actually all that interesting, but it was just a fabulous morning to be out walking and appreciating how lucky I am to have the health and fitness to be able to do, and enjoy this walk. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky and it was just a feel good morning!
      If I’m totally honest, I had very low expectations of where I was to finish today, but, it’s a really lovely place, small, but absolutely vibrant and just so different from the last two places.
      It’s a little bit sad, but I got seriously excited that I count do laundry here too!! Showered, changed, laundry sorted, I went off for a wander around.. yep!! I ended up in a bar with a beer watching the last 59km of the penultimate stage if the Vuelta!
      My dinner this evening was at a different location to where I was staying…. VEGETABLES!! YES!!i had the most amazing plate of vegetables…I’m so hy.. it really is the small things…      Läs mer

      Day 19

      11 september 2022, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

      Today has been the first day that I’ve felt a bit out of it.. a bit flat and a bit lonely.. i guess there was always going to be that one day..
      i had intended to start a bit later today, as it was a shorter day and a flatter one.. it didn’t really happen as everyone else banging their doors and clomping down the corridor, had me so awake that I thought I may as well get going…
      Today’s stage was a bit boring, nothing wrong with it, just long straight flat tracks through wheat fields for miles and miles, with no villages or stops for those that needed it.
      Some days it feels a little bit like a handicapped stage race and I’m always off scratch!!
      Before getting to the wheat fields, I went along a stretch that took me straight back to sitting on the wheel arch of the tractor ( no health and safety in those days 😬 ) with my Dad, cutting the grass and rowing it up for hay.. I wasn’t sure if the memory made me feel really happy or really sad.. but it did make me long for my Dad… amazing how smells and songs ( no songs involved on this occasion ) can evoke such strong emotions and memories…
      Although the stage was a bit monotonous, the weather was again absolutely fabulous, with not a cloud in the sky… it’s supposed to rain for the next 4!!!! Yes 4! day’s!!
      The village I finished in today was incredibly tiny.. another excuse for a guilt free reading session!!
      Dinner was early this evening..6.30.. Yes!!! Don’t know where my appetite has come from, but I was more than ready for dinner… tonight it was chickpea stew ( soup ) and then mackerel… just the mackerel.. no veg 😢 and I had to share my wine with Norbert.. yes, Norbert is staying at the same place and asked to join me !!!
      A bit of a down day ended on the up.. thanks Han, you made my day, and your support is so much appreciated 🥰      Läs mer

      Fromista to Carrion de los Condes

      16 september 2022, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 54 °F

      The walk was good this morning, although we didn’t sleep well last night due to no a/c and keeping the windows closed to keep out the bugs.

      We were gifted one of those iconic Camino moments when a Sheppard lead his flock of sheep with two dogs across the highway blocking our Camino for a minute. It was a nice reminder of the stories my father told of tending sheep in Rainier, OR on their farm on the Columbia River delta under the Longview Bridge. He gave us a tour of all the area where he grew up last summer when we visited him.

      We arrived in Carrion de los Condes around noon. The town has a great vibe. Bought some needed supplies and we were granted immediate access to our Hostal room. One of the best showers in days. Hot water until clean and then turning the water to cold to help the footsies recover.

      Lunch was a fantastic 3-course meal for 14 Euros. It was so good we made reservations at the same Restaurant, El Corte for this evening.

      After visiting a farmacia, we are now going to take a proper Spanish siesta.      Läs mer

      Carrión de los Condes

      27 september 2022, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 66 °F

      Day 2 on the Meseta and we clearly have moved into the mental stage of the Camino. Our walk was sprinkled with an odd silence. This section of Spain is so quiet. The roads have few cars or trucks and the village streets are empty most of the time. It has a peace to it that we just don’t get at home. When you see something going on it stands out, like the lady placing shoes out to air on a second floor window sill. No other sounds or activity for blocks, just an older Spanish lady going about her day.

      At one point we where walking along a road into a town and I said to Peg, “do you hear that?” there was no sounds other than a bird in the distance whose sound was amplified by the lack of noise. The peace and silence gives you time to clear your mind and think. The Meseta will last about a week so we have a lot of thinking time ahead of us. 😳

      On the health side of things, Peg looks to be on the mend. Today ended up at about 13 miles across the plains with a lovely walk along a tree shaded canal. The walking is mostly flat and easy going at this stage.

      Tomorrow will take us about 17 miles with a stay in a group albergue at the end of the day. While Peg has been feeling bad, we have been staying in private rooms in hostels or hotels. But it’s time to stop being spoiled with nice sheets and quiet rooms. Back to the serenade of two dozen people snoring the night away.
      Wish us luck with that!

      Buen Camino.      Läs mer

      Day 17 - Chillin’ on the Camino

      2 oktober 2022, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

      “All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” – J. R. R. Tolkien

      Day 16 - Villalcázar de Sigra to Carrión de Los Condes - 5.6km -1hr 5min

      Shortest day yet, but there are a couple of good excuses! I want a bath. A real bath. Not a shower in a shared bathroom, but a bath! Also, needed a short day to just chill and hang out. So, here we are!

      Walked with Carolyn this morning and she sets a tough pace. We made it to Carrión de Los Condes in just over an hour. Waited at a cafe for Jenny to arrive before we went to the Hostal. Thankfully, we were able to check in early and leave our bags in our rooms.

      Carolyn needed a new shirt (or 2!) so we headed back to a store that was open and specifically for travel/pilgrims. She got what she needed and we all went to lunch. I have some Lovely garlic shrimp and patates bravas. Mmmmmm!

      After lunch, I had a lovely long bath and a short nap - just what the Dr. ordered. Ok, there was no Dr., but it was well needed!!!

      Everything is closed on Sundays (with the exception if one or two places - literally). Thankfully one of the other open places was a grocery store. We grabbed some groceries so we can have eggs and bacon in the morning, and some soup for dinner since we had our main meal earlier.

      Got all our laundry done and spent the rest of the day planning the next week or two, distances, places to stay etc. It’s all part of the journey. And having at least a remote idea of where you want to end up is particularly important this year. I was hoping to wing it and just stop when I needed, and get a bed somewhere. That’s isn’t working as well this year because the Camino is SO busy. Beds are often all booked and I am also sending my pack now, most days. That needs a destination. Which in turn ties you to ensuring you get to a specific place each day - and have a booking there.

      We decided we had had enough of planning and would go across to the bar for a nightcap. 3 or 4 wines later, I am trying to write this blog while half cut. C’est La vie. It was a lovely day spent with wonderful new friends. Who can ask for anything more??      Läs mer

      Day 18 - It’s all about the food!

      3 oktober 2022, Spanien ⋅ 🌙 20 °C

      “Food may be essential as fuel for the body, but good food is fuel for the soul” - Malcom Forbes

      Day 18 - Rest day in Carrión de Los Condes.

      Some days on the Camino it’s all about the walking, the planning, or the albergues. Some days it’s all about the people you meet, the scenery you pass or your aches and pains. And some days, its all about the food. Today, it was all about the food!!

      Meals on the Camino can be pretty same, same but different. You can of course choose what you eat and where, but a lot of pilgrims meals - either at the albergues or in bars as the Menu Del Dia (meal of the day) are very similar. Day in and day out. Soup, pasta or mixed salad to start (generally, lettuce, tomato, tinned corn, carrot and tuna - with some variations). Second plate is thin pork slices, chicken, sometimes fish, sometimes beef, sometimes a burger. Always bread - served with fries or rice, and yogurt or ice cream for dessert. This is typical. Sometimes you get an outstanding meal, and I have had a few. However, there is a distinct lack of fresh veggies. Rice, potatoes, breads and pastas are stars of the show. Although no longer Keto at the moment, I still don’t do a lot of carbs - not those kind, anyway. As this was a rest day and we had no plans, Carolyn, Jenny and I planned a bit of a feast day.

      We all slept in today, as we had nowhere to go and no one waking us up at 5am! Yesterday we shopped and got our breakfast items: fresh eggs, bacon, tomato and bread (for them). Carolyn did most of the cooking and cooked us up the best breakfast I have had in weeks. We ate in the lovely solarium style dining area of our Albergue with the windows open and the sun shining. It was delicious and we were all replete, with very happy tummies after the meal.

      We mooched around town for a bit in the late morning, but a lot of stores are still shut on Mondays. I needed a new headlamp and a wrist brace, as my carpel tunnel has decided to act up too. Likely due to using my poles all the time. Jenny needed some items at the farmacia and we all wanted to get the dinner groceries. Once the shopping was done, it was time to relax for a bit - it was a strenuous morning 😂.

      I went for a stroll to the momentary as it is supposed to be stunning. I should do a bit more research - it closes at 2 (duh - everything does and it was 2:30pm) but, close all day on Mondays. Oh well. I needed to get more steps in for the day and the 1.5km didn’t hurt me.

      Late afternoon Carolyn and I went to our “local” across the narrow road from our Albergue. We sat and chatted with our now favourite Vino Rosada and I even ate a couple of fresh local olives. I generally hate olives, but these weren’t that bad at all. Nancy, Dave and Louie had made town earlier and came to join us for a drink and chat. It’s so great to see them! Jenny finally came down to complete the table and we had a lovely time telling all our Camino tales.

      Eventually, Jenny excused herself and then Carolyn. As I was saying goodbye to Nancy and Dave, Jenny was calling me to “tea”. Up I went to find this incredible spread that Jenny had prepared. I felt bad that I had not been lending a hand, but it was a bit late for that. We had the most incredible salad plates full of fresh veggies, eggs, meats and fish. Simply amazing! Again, full and happy tummies were had by all.

      I was hoping to grab some gazpacho at a local shop, but never got there. Instead, I hit up an old fashioned hardware store that had a bit of everything. I was able to pick up two lightweight containers (so now I can carry a repeat and smaller version of tonight’s salad, for lunch tomorrow) and finally, a headlamp for a third of the cost of the pilgrim store just down the road from it!

      A totally lazy day, which was much needed by all of us. Great company, great food and great wine. All in all, a successful day!! Only problem is, as I have been lazy today, I just know I won’t be wanting to head out into the cold morning tomorrow at 7am for a 23 km walk to our next destination. The only thing saving that walk is that I will be walking with Dave and Nancy - and maybe Louie if he doesn’t run ahead. Wish us luck!!      Läs mer

      Etappe 16: Formista nach Carrion

      4 oktober 2022, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

      Um 8 Uhr gings los.
      Heute standen 18 Kilometer an.
      Zuerst führte mich der Weg raus, aus dem kleinen Ort Formista.
      Der Camino führte, mich heute 18 Kilometer an einer vielbefahrenen Landstraße entlang.
      Manchmal hupten die Lkw-Fahrer, um uns zu grüßen?
      Keine Ahnung, aber ich hatte nur ein Ziel, endlich ankommen..also Musik aufs Ohr und weiter auf den Weg Richtung Carrion de Condes dem Ziel des heutigen Tages.
      Nach dem einchecken, musste ich mich erstmal ausruhen, da ich mich irgendwie nicht gut fühlte.
      Morgen geht's dann hoffentlich weiter.      Läs mer

      Fazit der 11. Woche

      4 juni 2023, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C

      Eigentlich wollte ich ein wenig klagen. Heute Morgen hatte ich etwas den Wegkoller. Wir hatten eine enge Unterkunft, unruhige Pilger und dazu schlechte Luft im Raum. Ich hatte das Gefühl dass meine Kleider alle stinken trotzdem ich immer wieder von Hand wasche. Nach der Ankunft und einer Siesta sind wir in die Stadt gegangen um einen Kaffee zu trinken und da haben wir völlig überraschend Ellen getroffen. Das letzte Mal haben wir sie in Moissac getroffen. Eine Schweizerin aus Chur.
      Wir haben uns sehr gefreut. Dann hat sie mir ihre Geschichte und den Grund für den Jakobsweg anvertraut.
      In zehn Tagen jährt sich der Todestag ihres Mannes zum zweiten Mal. Sie waren über 35 Jahre zusammen und haben gemeinsame Kinder. Er starb an einem Herzinfarkt in ihrem Beisein. Sie will nun einen Stein vom Grab ihres Mannes beim Eisenkreuz hinterlegen, um ihn loslassen zu können. Sie will ihr Gewissen, nicht genug für ihn getan zu haben, entlasten. Sie will die Bilder in ihrem Kopf loslassen, im Wissen dass er immer bei ihr sein wird. Und ich Kleingläubiger jammere über meine Kleider……., dabei laufen mir Tränen die Wangen runter.
      Tragt Sorge zu Euch und lebt zufrieden und dankbar!

      Carrion de los Condes to Terradillos

      7 september 2023, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F

      Left for Terradillos at 7:45 AM. Approximately 26 km's. Was fortunate enough to meet up with Paola from Italy via Peru. The unfortunate part in that is it was at the beginning of the stage. No sightseeing with her. Strictly business. We got to Terradillos in record time, but my dogs are barking. The local church gave Mass for the pilgrims, which was
      very nice. The Sponsoring Alberque had a dinner for us afterward . Met a gentleman from the Czech Republic, Las. He gave me a pear. Yeah, thought it was weird as well. Thanks to Paola I going to bed early. Buen Camino.      Läs mer

      Carrion de los Condes

      16 september 2023, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

      Dzisiejsza droga zaprowadziła nas do hotelu, który jest tak na prawdę częścią Real Monestario de San Zoilo. Dosc krótki odcinek ale próbujemy dać szansę aby moje kolano i stopa się wyleczyły. Jest duża poprawa i myślę że po Leon ruszymy już cała para na przód.
      Dzisiejszy szlak był przyklejony do drogi na szczęście malo ruchliwej. Nie mieliśmy deszczu aż dotarliśmy do celu no i potem rozpadało się na dobre. Pierwszy postój w Villalcazar de Sirga. Pięknym barem tuż przed wejściem do kościoła Santa Maria La Blanca, który po raz kolejny był zamknięty. W XII wieku był on siedzibą Templariuszy z siedzibą dla ważniejszych rycerzy. Niestety nie udało się go zobaczyć.
      Ruszyliśmy dalej oczekując naszego docelowego miasta. Zaraz na początku pojawił się klasztor Klarysek od wiecznej adoracji. Klasztor powstał w XIII wieku i od tego czasu monstrancja wystawiona na głównym ołtarzu nigdy nie jest sama, zawsze ma przynajmniej jedna Klaryske, która czuwa. Jest to miejsce w którym dobrze jest być długo.
      Kupiliśmy tam pamiątki i ciasteczka, które były robione pewnie przez najmłodsze Klaryski. Przepyszne z odpowiednią ilością cukru i wilgotności. Kupiliśmy dwie paczki ale chyba szybko znikną bo są tak dobre.
      Idąc dalej po prawej stronie mijaliśmy kościół Santa Maria del Camino(Victorious). Był on na szczęście otwarty. Południowa bram ma parę posągów byków na upamiętnienie pozbycia się Maurów. Ponoć pogonili ich bykami za miasto. Jest tam rzadki spotykany w Hiszpanii krzyż w kształcie litery Y. Prawdopodobnie koncept pochodzi od Wizygotów.Jest tam figura Matki Bożej z XIV wieku. Ponoć szef Murów wymagał 100 dziewic rocznie od okolicznej ludności no i w końcu przebrał miarkę i skończył razem ze swoimi kolegami albo przed, pod albo za bykami.
      W końcu dotarliśmy do naszego miejsca docelowego. Hotel można powiedzieć w dawnym klasztorze Clunies od 1076 roku, którzy później zostali częścią Benedyktynów. Wiadomo że mieszkali tu mnisi zw 948 roku.Miejsce to przechodziło wzloty i upadki, co prawda wzloty trwały parę setek lat. Było to znaczące religijne i polityczne miejsce. Przebywali to rycerze, książęta i ludzie nauki.
      Pozostałości budynku potwierdzają jego świetność.
      Patronuje nad nim Sw.Zoilo. w III wieku był torturowany przez Rzymian i wycięto/wyrwano mu nerki od tyłu a gdy to nie pomogło ucięto mu głowę. Kolejny obraz w którym widać jak bardzo ludzie potrafią być obrzydliwie okrutni.      Läs mer
