• Leon to Astorga

    September 14, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    What a start for the day! I sauntered on over to the Church plaza and acted as photographer for pilgrims at the Leon sign. I sent of some 5 groups on their Camino for the day including the Chileans. Last night's dinner group also showed up and the mood was cheerful. I visited the inside of the cathedral which is astounding, a must see.

    Had a great time meeting up again with Matt from Italy with whom I hiked so strong in the beginning. So great to see him again and our banter was as fun as ever.

    I set off to no destination in particular as long as I follow yellow arrows. Ideal temps, a couple of absolutely huge croissants devoured on the Orbigo bridge and life is extremely good.

    A wave of extreme happiness washes over me as I explore Astorga - The vibrations keep getting higher. Inner peace is happening.

    Ran into Henk and Magda two Dutch cyclists who I met before Leon as they were just starting dinner and I was able to join and we had a very fun conversation in Dutch. Great folks those two.
