      To Dos Hermanas (41 km, 150 m)

      22 Nisan, Ispanya ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

      This is a longer day than I would have wanted to do, but cascading events made it the only choice if I wanted to walk the whole way.

      Jumping ahead to Thursday— we have train tickets to take us from Sevilla, where this camino ends, to Ponferrada, where the Invierno begins. Our train leaves at 9:30, so the only way to have a good chunk of time in Sevilla was to have a short day tomorrow, which in turn required a long day today.

      It was hard for me, even with essentially no elevation gain. The first part was lovely — rural and mostly off road. I had a long break in a charming plaza in Utrera and began the second half about noon. A good chunk was through the very shady and quiet Cañada Real, but the last 9 km were out in the sun, on a dirt road, alongside the train tracks. It was a case of mind over matter, step by step. I got to our little apartment by about 4:45, pretty wiped out. We are now going for pizza to a highly rated pizzeria owned by an Italian.

      But having a 15 km day tomorrow into beautiful Sevilla will be one reward for this penitential day.
      And the other reward is that I now have proof positive that there will be no more 40 km days for me. It’s good to have a reality check, and to get a good understanding of what makes sense for this old lady.

      And here are two good tidbits— I heard from my friend in Santiago that my duffel bag finally arrived. And my power bank looks like it has revived itself!      Okumaya devam et

      To El Coronil (31 km, 440 m)

      22 Nisan, Ispanya ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Great day! The first half, to the town of Montellano, was all track, through ag lands with people out and about, always happy to stop and chat. Olive groves, sunflower fields just sprouting, and some green fields of grain along with some that were ready to harvest. And the wildflowers, oh the wildflowers! There was a small castle way up on a hill, but I wasn’t even tempted to climb up! And several Moorish atalayas (watch towers) in sight in several directions.

      In Montellano, I got a stamp in the town hall, with a nice chat about the Via Serrana with the two functionaries. The last 12 km into El Coronil were also very nice, except for the 4 km on the side of a fairly busy road with a shoulder that was overgrown with wildflowers.

      There was a “water feature” on this stage, which meant getting over to the side of the running current, finding some branches to cross the stream, and then walking in water up to my knees and crawling through an opening of about 2 feet between branches. This meant taking off my backpack and carefully transporting things from side to side. I know this is a terrible description, but believe me, it was a big challenge, and I was happy to make it with just my feet and legs wet. But the reward soon after was a 13 century Moorish castle that was really impressive.

      As I arrived in Montellano, I saw the turn-off for the consulta médica and headed in. I was very sure I had an infection, and even though I know exactly how to treat it, Spain has really clamped down on its pharmacists. No prescription, no nothing. Not at all like the old days.

      But this visit was quick and painless. I entered an empty office, with one doctor and two nurses, one assistant, and me. They asked for my health care card, but when I said I was from the US, they shrugged and gave me the cup. No more than 5 minutes later I was out of there with a prescription and a second prescription in case I still had symptoms a few days later. My Belgian friend Sabine was exactly right – Monurol was the medicine of choice. They had no way to charge me for the visit— this is a regional health care center, open 24 hours a day, with no billing office, no cash register, and no insurance forms to fill out. For someone from the US, it was mind-blowing.

      Clare found a great restaurant and we had an excellent menú del día, nothing like yesterday’s glop. Casa Miguel, in case you are ever in El Coronil.

      Two days to Sevilla! I can’t believe it.      Okumaya devam et

      Dag 2 richting de Spaans/Portugese grens

      17 Nisan, Ispanya ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

      Vanochtend een uur of 8 opgestaan na een goede nachtrust. Na douchen, ontbijten en de camper vullen en legen met schoon en vuil water richting Sevilla vertrokken. Net buiten Sevilla bij de Lidl boodschappen gedaan. Toen op ons gemak richting Huelva gereden. Onderweg op mooie plekjes koffie gedronken en de lunch gebruikt. Iets over vieren hebben we een wildplekje gevonden. We hopen dat we niet weggestuurd worden. Het is heerlijk rustig hier.
      Morgen hopen we de grens over te gaan richting Faro.      Okumaya devam et

      CASA Thomas und Campersur

      1 Aralık 2022, Ispanya ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

      Die ganze Nacht hat es üppig geschüttet, nach dem Malheur mit der Markise habe ich noch dazu vergessen im Bad das Fenster zu schließen als ich in der Nacht auf die Toilette gehe, tröpfelt mir Wasser auf meinen Kopf. Nachdem ich gestern mit dem Sessel umgefallen bin und mir meinen Kopf ziemlich angeschlagen habe, war ich momentan entsetzt ich dachte es ist Blut. Den ganzen Vormittag versorgen wir noch unser Automobil mit allem Nötigen und dann geht's auf zum zahlen.
      Für diese fünf Nächte auf dem Stellplatz mit dem Strom haben wir 57 € bezahlt das ist mehr als vernünftig.
      Dann geht's etwas über eine Stunde Richtung Sevilla in eine kleine Werkstatt, welche über Google Bewertung 5 Punkte hat.
      Wir kommen dort gegen 14 Uhr an und werden nett empfangen, die beiden Jungs bemühen sich sehr unsere ramponierte Markise wieder in Schuss zu bringen, der Arm wird abmontiert, in den Schraubstock eingespannt gehämmert und zu guter Letzt wieder montiert. Johann schaut das alles korrekt ausgeführt wird.
      Seine Privatkasse wird dann um 85 € inkl. TRINKGELD geschmälert und dafür werde ich noch zusätzlich als Entschädigung für einen fantastisches Essen eingeladen. Natürlich habe ich eine Überraschung parat, wir fahren nach Sevilla in die Casa Thomas wo ich weiß, dass es fantastisches Spanferkel gibt.
      Er ist um eine Erfahrung reicher und ein wenig Geld Ärmer.      Okumaya devam et

      Seville part 3 - bus trip to Andalucia

      30 Mayıs 2023, Ispanya ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F

      Andalucia's White Hills Towns - all the buildings are a shade of white. Most popular town is Ronda.

      The first village we stopped in was Zahara where one of our stupid was an olive oil mill. Next was lunch in Grazalema. The highlight of the bus trip was Ronda, a city split down the middle by a deep gorge. We spent a couple hours walking around the town, enjoying the scenery.Okumaya devam et

      Ronda (only one d)

      23 Ocak, Ispanya ⋅ 🌙 14 °C

      Up early to go and beat the crowds at Ronda. Managed to find a good street parking spot and walked a mile or so down to see the bridge, which of course I couldn't look down from, so the sky suddenly became very interesting.
      John spotted a museum en route. It was really good. Museo Lara. It had all sorts of engineered implements from guns (which I found surprisingly interesting. They were works of art), sewing machines, nautical measuring instruments, cameras, knives, pipes, guitars and loads more. It also had a witchcraft section (see videos) and a Spanish inquisition section. John was bowled over with it and said it's one of the best museums he's been to. It was a private collection. We would have stayed longer but it was too cold inside and we'd dressed for 23° (it felt a lot hotter than that in the sun).
      We splashed out on lunch of goat's cheese 'brick' (which turned out to be deep fried in batter parcel) and a waldorf style salad for me and beef and bacon burger with chips for John, plus bottled waters, a coffee for me, and a pudding for John. It cost €43, probably higher prices due too being close to the bridge. Ironically, we chose the one sunny table outside but half way through, they went and put a parasol up and placed it so we got no sun! It was too late to ask them not to.
      There were many parties of people with a guide. Mainly Japanese we thought. Lots of nationalities but luckily at this time of year it didn't feel crowded. Good for people watching. We then walked to lower ground and saw the bridge from below.

      Moving on, we tried an overnight spot in Montelballo but didn't like it so have ended up here. In a small area where walkers come, near a place called Moron.      Okumaya devam et

      Galp - Estación de Servicio - Los Palaci

      19 Mayıs 2022, Ispanya ⋅ ⛅ 34 °C

      Some more hiccups. after leaving plaza Leandro we headed for the train station heading north east instead of south east....after an hour walking in the high 30's we got to the station. then we went to the wrong side of the station to pick up the car from Europe car. eventually we got the right place and have a nice small blue opel Corsca Heading out of Seville we got on the A4....but heading east to Cordoba instead of south west to Cadiz. eventually we got on the right track and had a lovely picnic lunch at Galp - Estación de Servicio - Los Palacios under the shade of the ramada. we had the iberian ham that our host gave us, some Viejo cheese and some olive oil. went into the rest stops restaurant for espresso and we picked up some of the tortas de aceite- our host had left some of these and they were very yummy but we had eaten them all. she said seville is famous for these. they are sweet with honey and I think a touch of cardomen. I just googled, it is anise seed the recipe goes way back, influences from Arab Jewish and Mozarabic. i hope we will be able to find them back home. Back on the road and outside of Cadiz we didnt take the correct exit and ended up back tracking on the E5 for 20 km. eventually we found our way to Zahara de los Atunes but it was around 5 pm instead of 4. The trip was suppose to take 2 hr 15 and I think we were closer to 3 hours....or more. very long sandy beaches here like Oregon or long beach just beautiful!! and some very cool rock formations. ....and very windy so you dont notice the 33 degree temp. winds around 40-50 km/hr. The highway barrier was white and pink oleander and Spanish broom and pine trees at the side of the highway. we noticed irrigation troughs in the fields. and quite a few wind turbines.Okumaya devam et

      17 Şubat 2023, Ispanya

      Pour ce timing assez serré pour descendre l'Espagne du Nord au Sud, nous avons l'occasion de croiser beaucoup d'autres trophystes. On se fait une vraie joie à chaque fois qu'on peut en dépasser quelques uns de plus (qui parfois nous doublent à nouveau plus tard sur la route). On en profite de temps en temps pour prendre des petites vidéos souvenirs entre nous.Okumaya devam et
