      Von león nach villadangos

      28. mai 2022, Spania ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

      Hallo Freunde der Sonne. Hier meldet sich mal wieder Radio camino. Die Etappe von Leon nach villadango gestaltete sich erstmal so, dass man ca 4 km gehen musste, ehe man den Stadtrand erreichte. Danach ging es relativ unspektakulär neben einer vielbefahrenen Bundesstraße weiter. Die gelbe Scheibe am Himmel brannte unbarmherzig, so dass einige Stopps angesagt waren und den Wasserspeicher wieder zu füllen. Das anvisierte Domizil liegt außerhalb der kleinen Stadt und man könnte es mit dem Spruch " Irgendwo im nirgendwo " beschreiben.😂😂. Fazit des Tages: Nunja, es gibt schlimmeres. Hasta luego.Les mer

      Leon to Villar de Mazarife

      21. mai 2022, Spania ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C

      At last I have left Leon! To shorten the walk today I caught the local bus to the outskirts of the city and began walking from Virgen del Camino.

      The first half was like walking along a fire trail in the National Park. Long red tracks with low scrub and bright yellow wildflowers. It then changed to wheat fields and poppies - we are getting close to the end of the meseta.

      I am in a lively and large albergue, at the moment there are a group of locals downstairs playing a surprisingly loud game of dominos.

      My foot held up well, I rested it a lot on the way. And I’ve iced and elevated it since I got here but it is now feeling very sore. I will wait and see what tomorrow brings.

      Leon to Villadangos del Paramo

      14. mai 2022, Spania ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

      21km - vandag se stap voel soos die slegte deel van Woodstock in CT vir die eerste 10km. Ek sien mooi graferings in brons in n vuil muur, dadelik nuuskierig gaan loer ek nader. Dit lyk bekend. Vlieg om die draai en voor my is die Basilica de la Virgin Del Camino deur n moderne argitek en versier met Subirach werke (bekend vir sy werk aan die Sagrada Familia onderandere). My mond hang oop maar die ander stappers stop nie eers nie.

      Dit was n vinnige 21km langs n besige pad. Die laaste van die plat Meseta. My nuwe stap stok werk soos n bom om ekstra gewig van die seer plekke af te hou.

      Eks vroeg by my hostel in die vreemde dorp van Villadangos. Dis n industriële dorp en hier gaan niks aan nie. Die gebou laat my dink aan Steven King’s The Shining met lang, verlate gange. Aandete was koue vleis, kaas, brood en verskillende vreemde slaaie. Lekker gekuier met mense van UK en Korea.      Les mer

      León to Villar de Mazarife

      9. oktober 2022, Spania ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

      The city of León was partying all night near our hotel in center of town. There were people singing and shouting in the street till about 7:30am.

      We got up at 7 and were out the door about 8. There was a great cafe operating not far away so we had very good juice (fresh squeezed as always), fresh croissant and coffee there before rejoining the Camino trail. It was a fairly pleasant walk out of León toward the west, passing the magnificent Parador hotel on the way. It’s a converted monastery and features in the film “The Way”.

      There followed some slightly grimy dormitory suburbs along the train line. Not far out of town we met our friend Chris from Utah. Then in Virgen del Camino, really an outer suburb of Leon, we had a 2nd coffee and bought a big ham sandwich, in case pickings were slim on the trail ahead on a Sunday. We also ran into our Danish friends there, Jens and Kristin.

      Just after Virgen del Camino the Way forks and we had booked a room along the more scenic side so we left our friends at that point. Pretty soon we were in open scrubby country with a few trees. It could have been outback Australia or Brazil. Red earth, blue sky.

      Conditions were cool (64F/17C) sunny and dry, often with a breeze, but the sun had induced quite a thirst in us when we entered the tiny village of Oncina de Valdeoncina. There was no bar to be found but the owner of a new albergue, Domus Oncinae, invited us in for a cold drink. The place looks very nice there and we enjoyed a rest stop and a Kas Naranja (orange fizzy drink). The next 5k or so were the best of the day. Wide open countryside, some farmed, most not, on a wide soft dirt track, with a nice breeze. That brought us to the village of Chozas de Abajo. Not expecting much we found a capacious bar with a large shaded veranda where we ate our ham sandwich, washed down by more iced Kas Naranja, and a delicious tomato tapas thing accompanying the soft drinks.

      After lunch and a foot airing it was a 4km trudge along a paved road to our destination of Villar de Mazarife.

      21.5km was our tally for the day, in excellent walking conditions.

      We checked into Albergue San Antonio de Padua: $85 for twin room, dinner and breakfast for 2, all very new.      Les mer

      Day 28-Villar de Mazarife

      4. oktober 2023, Spania ⋅ ⛅ 75 °F

      We didn't want to leave the Parador but it was time to hit the road. I stood on the balcony at 7am wishing the passing pilgrims a Buen Camino then we went downstairs for breakfast. First things first, we each snuck a ham and cheese sandwich for later. Pat said it was like a rich kid who shoplifts...they don't need to but they do it for the thrill. It turned out we really needed the sandwiches because when we were hungry, nothing was open.

      We had to walk through a couple busy suburbs before we got to the alternate route turnoff to Villar de Mozarife. It was a pretty walk in nature with little shade so I used my umbrella to keep cool. It's funny how towards the end of the walk I'm tired, hot and want it to be over but after a shower and cool beverage, I'm rejuvenated.

      Now we're just sitting in the courtyard watching our clothes dry. Our hostess just picked some apples and shared them with all of us.      Les mer

      Back at it, 13 miles today. I did not want to get up today, let alone go walking for hours. However, after we got started I got back into walking.

      It is funny, I am so ready to come home, but at the same time I do not want this journey to end. Enjoy the update, I had to make two videos today.Les mer

      Home made dinner

      12. august 2022, Spania ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

      The 3 of us went shopping at the only grocery store in town, and came back with ingredients for dinner and breakfast.
      JinJu helped me with vegetable chopping and I made a risotto. Jan made a fruit salad.
      It all turned up very good and very economical. Then JinJu gave me a compliment that made my day: said it was the best meal she has had in Spain!      Les mer

      Villar de Mazarife

      12. august 2022, Spania ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

      I stopped for a short break at the last bar before Villar de Mazarife, the destination for the day. The village that follows is 10k away. To make it to Astorga tomorrow, we had to walk 20k one day and 30 the next, or vice-versa. My plan was to do just 20 today, as we started a bit late and it was hot.
      Most of the pilgrims that took the variant route stopped at the same cafe, but not JinJu. She was going slow, and just kept walking.
      Jan was in deep conversation with another German and when I was ready to move on, they still had drinks to take care of, so I went on my way, assuming they'd catch up with me. I told Jan I was going to Albergue de Jesus (sounds like a religious place, but no: Jesus is the name of the owner 🤣).
      I caught up with JinJu halfway to the albergue, and we checked in together. We were given a twin room to share, for the same price as a dorm 😀
      Jan and the other guy were not in sight yet. TBH, I thought that perhaps they didn't like the look of the albergue and went to another one. Jesus' place looks a bit shabby from outside, but it has charm, and by far the best reviews in the village.
      So, JinJu and I settled in, had something to eat, showered, did the laundry... and only then Jan and his mate arrived. They wanted to keep going to the next village (another 10k), so I wished them buen Camino and went to my room for some rest. When I came back down an hour later, Jan was checking in! They had stayed for a drink, and then Jan changed his mind about the extra 10k. Also, all the people we met during the day were staying here. So, tomorrow we're starting from the same place again. It's like we're joined at the hip!      Les mer

      Leon - Villar de Mazarife

      Vamos a Tio Pepe! Nicht der Jerez, aber die Albergue in Villar de Mazarife ist heute mein Ziel.
      Ich habe mich für eine alternative Route entschieden, nicht an Autobahnen und Industriegebieten zu laufen sondern von Dorf zu Dorf.
      Das bedeutet, dass ich heute einen Umweg habe und mogeln musste ☺️Taxifahrt bis Virgen del Camino, weg von Industrie und Verkehr. Als das Taxi vorfährt erscheinen 2 Amerikanische Ladies, sie sind hoffnungslos überfordert und fragen ob sie mit uns mitfahren dürfen, selbstverständlich sage ich. Das suchen der beiden nach Masken ( die muss man im Taxi noch tragen) beginnt. Etwas ungeduldig werde ich , die nette Dame a d Rezeption hilft aus und beide bekommen ihre Masken🙏

      Wir quatschen im Taxi und sie fragen, wie weit wir schon gelaufen sind, 400 Kilometer erzählen wir stolz, ab SJPdP.
      Und ihr? Terry erzählt, ab Burgos, 3 Tage . Der Taxifahrer sagt, unmöglich, 200 Kilometer? No No, we took a taxi 🤣.      Les mer

      Arrived at my destination on my first day and managed to find a bed without a booking. I was lucky! Walked with Ciska, a born South African who has been living in Australia for the last 16 years. She showed me the ropes, I am thankful! I attended my first pilgrim meal, food was delicious and a lot, pasta salad as a starter, fish with chip for main and an icecream for dessert with red wine. All for 12€. There was people from the USA, Germany, South Korea, France, Australia, Philippines and off course SA. I feel blessedLes mer
