      Tag 21 von Fromista Carrion de los Conde

      22. toukokuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

      Heute war ein eher kurzer Tag es war nicht mehr so warm und es ging immer ein leichtes Lüftchen. Das war nach der Hitze der letzten Tage eine richtige Wohltat. Heute habe ich mit einigen Leuten gesprochen echt super. Mein Englisch wird immer besser 😃 . Es ist halt so das auf dem ganzen Weg Englisch gesprochen wird. Hier in Carrion de los Condes gibt es 6 Kirchen und 2 sind offen aber diese sind wirklich schön. Jetzt geht's noch etwas essen und um 20 Uhr ist Feierabend. Das Laufen und die frische Luft mache ziemlich müde. Morgen sind es 26km. Besser Ausgeschlafen gehen . Um 5:30 Uhr aufstehen und um 6:00 Uhr geht's los .Lue lisää

      Castrojeriz to Fromista

      15. toukokuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

      When I woke this morning my foot was swollen and more painful and it was obvious I wouldn’t be able to walk today. Lesley from Durham was also injured so we shared a taxi to the medical centre in Fromista.

      My foot is sprained and I have to stop walking for seven days. This is very disappointing but I was happy that I hadn’t broken anything. However the doctor said Lesley’s back injury was severe and she couldn’t keep walking and she will have to return home for treatment.

      We spent the morning looking at the churches and having a second and third breakfast while we waited to check into the albergue and for her travelling companions to arrive.

      We all then went for a long lunch and it unexpectedly ended up being a very enjoyable day.

      Von castrojeriz nach fromista.

      21. toukokuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

      Hola buenas...selbst wenn ich wollte, könnte ich heute keine vernünftige Dokumentation des Tages schreiben, denn ich bin heute wie schon angekündigt schonenderweise nicht gepilgert, sondern mit einem Taxi zur nächsten Alberque gefahren. Nun habe ich mir überlegt, einfach mal diejenigen zu danken, welche mich immer bei der Planung und Vorbereitung auf dieses Abenteuer unterstützt haben. Dazu gehört natürlich meine Lisa, die mir immer den Rücken freigehalten hat, bei der ganzen Geschichte. MeineTochter auf die ich so stolz bin und meine Sangesbrüder und Freunde. DANKE, ICH LIEBE EUCH ALLE. Fazit des Tages: es ist wichtig im Leben, solche Menschen an seiner Seite zu wissen. Gott beschütze euch. Buen camino.Lue lisää

      Tag 20 von Castrojeriz nach Frómista

      21. toukokuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 34 °C

      Der Tag heute begann gleich mit einem Anstieg von 200 Metern auf 1.5 Kilometer. Danach war es eher gerade. Meine Gedanken waren heute bei meiner Frau die mich seit 28 Jahren im Leben begleitet und ohne die ich nicht da wäre wo ich heute bin ! Sie hat es sicher nicht immer leicht mit mir aber irgendwie hält sie es mit mir aus. Leider kann ich es nicht immer so zeigen wie ich es gerne würde. Ich weiß das ich ohne ihre Unterstützung diesen Weg nie hätte machen können. Ich hoffe auf noch viel Glückliche und gesunde Jahre mit ihr und natürlich meinen beiden Kindern. Der Weg macht etwas mit einem obwohl man es erst garnicht so bemerkt. Alles wird irgendwie zur neben Sache nur das wichtige kommt in den Vordergrund. Auch vergisst man die Wochentage . Es gibt nur Schlafen Laufen und Essen . Die Hitze ist teilweise echt nicht mehr auszuhalten vor allem ohne Schatten. Mal schauen wie es weiter geht.Lue lisää

      Day 20 Fromista to Carrion de Condes

      10. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 50 °F

      We had a shorter walk today, so we took our time heading out. The mornings are quite crisp now. We started out with hats, puffers and gloves. Within an hour or so we are back to shirt sleeves. We are continuing across the Maseta and took an alternate route that kept us in quiet countryside instead of near the highway. We were fortunate to find the Ermita de la Virgen del Rio church open to visit. We stopped for refreshments in Villacazar de Sirga which is home to the magnificent Knights of Templar church Santa Maria, open since the early 1300's. We ended the day in Carrion de Los Condes, where we were honored to celebrate the birthday of our new friend Ann which we met in Hornillos de Camino.Lue lisää

      Boadilla > Carrión

      17. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

      Somehow all managed to take different routes to this place but all got there in one piece!! Albeit a dead one piece for me - paid the price being too lazy to get out snax from bag for the final 5K LOL. In the eve sang w some nuns and I think Captain Stu needs to take over my captioning duties cos he said they should have been on the cross factor not X factorLue lisää

      Finaly arrived

      15. elokuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C

      Today I did 35 Km in 7h (breaks incl.)! A few kilometers were next to a canal and at the end the canal fell down 30-40m- and I had to cross this reservoir bank (Staustufe) via a very small bridge! A bit scary if you are afraid of hights like me. Puh- my feed were burning but it worked out! It was actually the longest stage I did so far!
      Tomorrow there is a monster step of 18 through the Meseta with nothing (no village, no water), that‘s why everybody tries to get here- I might start early again and see how far I get afterwards! Tomorrow I will also pass the midpoint of the whole Camino, so I get closer and closer to Santiago and also ultimately to my family! 😘😍🥰

      Day 17..

      9. syyskuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Well.. I know I seem to have developed an appetite I haven’t had since I was about 15… but .. croissants 🥐.. Eeww!!! Panic at breakfast thinking that was possibly all I was going to get before a longer walk today, I held my breath and struggled through half of one!! … It wasn’t 🙄.. toast followed 😀and a dodgy cold omelette like cake 😬… but the Orange juice was amazing and I’m warming to coffee…
      Time to go… a really lovely morning with a strange low hanging mist in the distance, but much warmer than it’s been for a few days.. found my way out of town ok as I was once again staying on the route.. I hadn’t bothered looking at the route for today as I assumed it was another flat one!! Well, imagine my joy to discover after the first couple of km’s I had “Bob’s hill” only for about 2km!! 😀 Totally made my day!! I love the hills!!!
      The low hanging mist I mentioned.. mmm .. it suddenly went freezing once I was down the other side and had to walk through it.. all good and part of what turned out to be a really enjoyable stage with a bit of everything.. though I apologise if my pictures are all a bit “cloudy “ again 😬.. but seriously, the clouds ARE amazing!!
      Met the gorgeous Chloe on route again today.. I think the two ladies ( sisters ) from Vancouver must be with the same company as me, as we seem to be staying in more or less the same places .. we both love it when dinner is before 8.. imagine our giddiness to discover it was from 6.30 this evening!!!
      On my arrival here today, I was a bit too early to check in, so obviously it was an opportunity to go for a beer ( lemon 2% I might add!!! )
      Anyway, a guy that I didn’t realise I passed every day said to me when he walked in “ you drink beer and still walk straight past me!! I’m not too sure why I apologised, but I did 😬..
      Shower and Nana nap later, i went for a wander round and to check my way back to the route for the morning, it was by then seriously hot and required another ( 2%, for those thinking I may be developing a drink problem ) beer 😳😂🍻
      The meal tonight was really good, they let me have both bits off the first section which was great and what I wish I could do more often..
      Another day in the bag and I’m still ok, do all good 😊…

      The Meseta provided a good day on the Camino. Not sure why people pass it up. As I was drawn back into the “real world” this evening by events, I’m reminded how life often feels like there’s too much going on. A symptom of our modern complicated lives? The Camino has a way of simplifying and clarifying the necessities: Air, Water, Food, Shelter, Hospitality, Companionship… I’ll leave it at that for today.Lue lisää

      Going to Carrión de los Condes

      9. lokakuuta 2023, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 48 °F

      Today we walked 19 km alongside the highway to get to Carrión de los Condes. It was relatively flat and mostly not too hot.

      We passed a shepherd on the way. His herding dog was a goofy German Shepherd puppy, maybe 4-5 months old. Needless to say the pup wasn’t much help! The sheep spilled out of their enclosure, onto the Camino, and onto the highway where they stopped all traffic!

      We have been wondering for days how the sunflowers here are harvested. Today we saw two fields of flowers being harvested. We still don’t know how the oil is extracted but at least we saw the lawnmower-like machines cutting down the spent plants.

      David started out pretty well and didn’t carry a pack today due to his messed up back and “tilt.” But as the day wore on he started moving slower and tilting more. When we got to our hotel I spent a couple hours trying to figure out how to get him a massage. Out here in the countryside it is not easy! But tomorrow we’re walking slowly to Ledigos. David’s not carrying a pack and will use poles. Then we’ll take a taxi from our albergue (hostel) to the next town where he has an appointment for a massage. Here’s to hoping it does the trick!
