      The earliest departure ever

      16. juni 2022, Spania ⋅ ☁️ 64 °F

      Got out shortly after 6 in the morning in order to attack the big hill that is coming up and give myself plenty of time to do that
      temperatures are still supposed to get hotter in the day with the possibility of thunderstorms developing after 2:00pm

      Obviously got treated to a sign of a full moon and unfortunately missed the pink moon the previous night      Les mer

      Day 29 Climb to O'Cebreiro

      5. juni, Spania

      We started early to climb up through the Cantovrios Mountains before the heat of the day. As we came through the village of La Laguna de Castilla while photographing some penned cows, the owners opened the gate, and the cows rushed into the street and past us to get to their pasture Yikes, they are huge, and these horns are pointy and long! When we arrived at the town of O'Cebreiro, we were greeted by the sounds of a bagpiper. We are officially in the region of Galicia now. We met up with 3 members of our Camino family, people we started with in France 4 weeks ago. Here is a graph of our downhill tomorrow.Les mer

      Etappe 23 - La Laguna 1

      9. oktober 2022, Spania ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

      Nachtruhe gibt verbrauchte Kräfte doch schnell zurück. Ziehe zwar die Schnarcher an, aber mit Ohrstöpsel einigermaßen zu ertragen.
      Heute gemeinsam mit Patrick aus Melbourne gegen 8 Uhr gestartet.
      Bis Las Herrerias eine einigermaßen abwechslungsreiche Etappe, ohne große Steigungen. Sind viel entlang der Landstraße gelaufen. War kein verkehrliches Problem, da heute Sonntag ist.
      Dann ging es in die Bergkilometer bis La Laguna. Hier bin ich, trotz Landstraße, ganz schön am meine Grenzen gekommen.      Les mer

      Beautiful day! Nice walk next to the river! And then the last 3km turned into a moerse climb! It sadly does not look steep in the video! We'll tackle the rest tomorrow!

      Tonight we'll be cooking - everything in the backpacks... to make it lighter....Les mer

      Etappe 23 - La Laguna 2

      9. oktober 2022, Spania ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

      In La Laguna gegen 15 Uhr erschöpft, aber glücklich angekommen.
      Herberge wieder 10 Personen in einem Raum. Aus unserer gestrigen Auberge alle wiedergetroffen. Hier geht wahrscheinlich keiner verloren.
      Derzeit bin ich fast nur mit englisch sprechenden Pilgern zusammen. Muss ganz schön meine Englischkenntnisse ausgraben. Manchmal beginne ich schon in englisch zu denken, bzw. Selbstgespräche zu führen - seltsam!
      Bin hier völlig auf dem Lande - wie aus den Fotos ersichtlich.      Les mer

      Day 26 walking!

      4. juni, Spania ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

      We left our Albergue this morning to finish the last few Km to the top of the mountain, and passed from Castilla y León into Galicia. We reached the top in the cool of the morning, and were greeted by local playing the bagpipes which was unexpected but rather nice. At the top we had stunning views of mountains in all directions. We were above the morning mist (or low cloud?) and so the mountain tops looked like they were floating on the mist, not sure the photos do it justice! The village at the top O’Cebreiro, had old cobbled streets and building including thatched roofs and had artisan shops. Last night we were at 1,150m altitude and the top is 1,330m. The way then took us through a village and to another peak (San Roque) at 1,270m, again just stunning panoramic views! The way meandered and took us to yet another peak Alto do Poie at 1,335m which was quite an arduous climb! But what goes up must come down and we started the slow descent down to Triacastela at 675m. The path took us through farming villages and past munching or dozing cows with cow bells, and lots of alpine meadows and wild flowers including bluebells, obviously flowering later due to the altitude, and giant slugs! The way also took us past an 800 year old chestnut tree with lots twists and turns, very gnarled.
      So last night we were in bunks and again tonight in Albergue Horta de Able. It was only (?!) 23 Km today but the inclines made it hard work!      Les mer

      Day 30 Down the mountain to Triacastelo

      5. juni, Spania ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

      23k down the mountain to Tricastelo started at the peak, above the clouds, then in the foggy clouds, then below the clouds, then above! Cows came up the road again today as we were going down the road. They get so close! This walnut tree is 800 years old. Dinner with friends. Met up with our Tazmanian friends Annie and Kay, who we had not seen in a while, since they are nursing knee problems. Tomorrow is a turning point since we are heading to the last 100k of the Camino de Santiago. This portion of the Camino is very popular. Many people walk this distance from Sarria into Santiago because it is the least amount required to receive a compostella at the cathedral. People say it is crowded and noisy, unlike the peaceful and quiet 690k we have walked so far.Les mer

      Las Herrerias

      22. oktober 2023, Spania ⋅ ☁️ 50 °F

      Today we walked around 15 miles steadily uphill. It was very gradual and felt pretty flat! We walked alongside either a river or creek all day. Today’s walk was almost entirely on the side of the road. We stopped in two small churches. He we got stamps for our pilgrims, credential, and each of the churches, which is kind of unusual, because a lot of times there’s no stamp in churches. Beginning in Sarria in a few days, we have to be sure to get at least two stamps with dates per day to qualify for our Compostela, which is a certificate showing that we have completed the Camino. No rain today but it’s supposed to rain every day except one for the rest if the trip.

      We are in a little hostel right now that has cows right outside the window that have large bells on their collars that go donka donka donka!

      David’s back feels great as long as he doesn’t have to carry a backpack. My blister on my feet from my poorly fitting shoes is slowly disappearing. At this point in the walk, my legs and feet are very sore. I don’t think anything’s wrong, I think I’ve just walked almost 500 miles over the last month!

      We were sad to say goodbye to our friends, Lisa and Lisa, but they texted us that they made it up to the top of the mountain we are climbing tomorrow. In one of the little churches, we stopped into. We saw our friend Sandra from our first three or four days of the Camino! What a surprise to see her after all this time!      Les mer

      Day 30

      22. september 2022, Spania ⋅ 🌙 9 °C

      Have had a really enjoyable day.. who couldn’t have with such amazing views, scenery and company..
      Met back up with Robbie to walk up to O’Cebreiro this morning.. what a fabulous walk, really cold and clear skies to start with, but it warmed up quickly and I seriously didn’t notice how much we’d climbed as it went so quickly, poor Robbie’s ears must have been ringing😬.. in my defence, I’ve hardly spoken to anyone I know for 4 weeks 😂😂
      We literally just walked passed chatting, so many people struggling… I guess we’re both fitter than the average walker doing the Camino..
      There was a lovely church in O’Cebreiro that I lit a candle for Jack I and just sat in for 10 minutes ❤️
      My accommodation was a 10 minute drive outside of the village, so I had a number for Miguel, who had arranged my transport ..
      My meal this evening was seriously underwhelming, so I thought it only seemed right to have an extra glass ( they did give me a bottle) of the slightly less underwhelming red wine 🤪
      All a bit brief tonight, but I’m really tired looking forward to going to bed 🥱      Les mer

      Day 32: Cacabelos to Vega de Valcarce

      18. juni 2023, Spania ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F

      Mileage: 16.75 miles
      Altitude gain: 1,309 feet
      Altitude loss: 889 feet
      Weather: lovely but quite warm in the afternoon
      Total mileage: 383 miles

      Sundays are always a little quieter, and today was no exception. Lots of up and down in the first six miles, and then a gradual but steady ascent the rest of the day as I head into the mountains. Those early hills plus (as of today) three 16-mile days mean that my legs are tired! Looking forward to a good sleep tonight.

      The early part of the day took me through miles of vineyards, on dirt roads. The rest of the day was alongside a river - Río Valcarce- and a highway on asphalt. The river is also next to my hotel, so it will sing me to sleep.

      I had lunch and dinner with two women from Finland today. Their English is impeccable, of course, so we had nice chats. They’re walking ahead of me tomorrow so I won’t see them after tomorrow, which is often the way of the Camino. I was glad to have their company today.

      Tomorrow will be short(er) but intense - 8 miles up a mountain! Wish me luck.

      1. and 2. I took an embarrassing number of pics of the vineyards this morning, so be glad I managed to control myself here!
      3. One of the towers of the Castillo-Palacio de los Marqueses de Villafranca
      4. This is a hostal, apparently! San Nicolas el Real in Villafranca del Bierzo
      5. Colegiata de Santa Maria de Cluni; not the only church in town! I had a really nice conversation with an older woman headed to mass at one of the others after this. She promised to pray for me.
      6. Looking back over Villafranca
      7. The Río Valcarce kept me company today.
      8. A nice divergence from the highway took me up this road.
      9. Paella for lunch! I was very grateful for an open restaurant on a Sunday and happy to eat the carbs. Delicious!
      10. Yes, another one of these. I can’t stop! Maybe Neal can photoshop out the power lines. There were a lot of those today, ruining my shots! This is in La Portela de Valcarce.      Les mer
