Villatuarta to Los Arcos; September 16th

 

Today was our longest walk to date – 25.8 k.  We started at 6:30 and arrived at Bodegas Iracha, a fountain at a monastery where you can have water or wine. A great way to start your day!

At Bodega Iracha we met a young man who plans to carry a cross the entire length of the Camino. This is a pretty large cross and while not too heavy it is large and awkward but he is carrying it by himself.  Written on the cross are messages of encouragement from other peregrinos.  Amazing!

The second half of today’s walk was in a pretty desolate area, beautiful, but nothing but rolling hills of hay for miles.  Until you came upon the food truck.  It’s in the middle of the photo tucked into the trees.

We thought we’d give you a feel for the walk – check it out!

  1. Hi guys. You guys are looking good and the scenery looks beautiful. Just wanted to let you know we are at Timber Trails for the weekend. Got here at 8 after 3 hours of traffic. The house looks good. Thanks for asking us to keep an eye on it. We truly enjoy it here.

    Keep up the good work and enjoy every moment. Looking forward to more great pics.

    Oh yeah, by the way, did you remove the furniture before you left because there is none here? (LOL) Just kidding.

    Adios, Joe and Reta

  2. ok, is it mean that i think you should sneak up on the guy carrying the cross one night and take it. imagine…’how the heck did i lose the cross!’ love the updates, keep em coming.
