Long hot day

Today was a bit misleading on paper it's just 18 km recommended but I wanted to walk the extra 6 km to Castro which increased the distance to 24 (about standard) but big uphill and bigger downhills. I woke at 6 but felt lazy and relaxed and didn't get up till 7. so on the road at 7:30 LA Mesa a few km down the road had a great alberges with yummy breakfast so took an extra 45 minutes there, which meant heading out of Mesa straight up the hill as the sun was starting to rise did not feel so great. Also to properly appreciate these pictures you should get a nice big bag of sloppy cow manure and take good regular whiffs to really appreciate the full experience. Honestly the primitivo tag should not be steepest camino, more like smelliest.

Anyway lots of road walking. I stopped and had a full lunch (3 course) at Grande and then ambled the lat 5km to Castro arriving about 4:30 - by far the latest I have ever been for any arrival.

not getting to bad but quite sleepy.もっと詳しく
