Today was tough in many ways. I had an early start as there was no accommodation available to be booked in San Juan de Ortega so I had to hope I’d get to the municipal albergue before it was full.En savoir plus

A later post tonight as we have hit the city lights of Burgos. What a contrast to San Juan where the only noises were roosters and cow bells!
I must say though that last night we had the best meal.En savoir plus

You’re keeping that youthful look about you. 😉 you look good! Inner Peacefulness!
Voyageur From the map, you seem to have covered quite a distance today. Is it about the same distance daily or does it vary depending upon the terrain?
Voyageur Thanks Renée, I am holding up pretty well. The distance was a little longer, the difference for today was the climbing. Glad I was able to get something from the pharmacy. Slept well. Today will be good.
Voyageur I know that climbing uphill on the Camino can be quite difficult. How about the downhill, the effect on the knees? Are your knees holding up? By the way, I am soooo impressed. You are doing great and are meeting so many interesting people from around the world - AND turning them into FRIENDS.
