Today was our biggest day so far, 27 kilometers. The Camino path split today and we decided to take the less traveled path. I thought we would be walking on a Roman road but it was more like Roman rubble. Very few people take this route. For most of the afternoon it was just me, Beth and alot of flies.
Having these big days behind is giving us the confidence we need to complete this journey. We have been noticing we haven’t had that ” Zen” moment when we walk. We are usually thinking about where the next coffee or restroom stop is or why our feet hurt so much. They say you need to listen to your body when doing the Camino. Our feet are usually shouting at us “Stop walking! Stop walking! What about “stop walking” do you not understand!
We are spoiling ourselves in a lovely small hotel in town run by a husband and wife that could not be nicer.
Your feet are talking to you, huh? When is your next rest day? 🙂
Tomorrow when we get to the big city (Leon). Right now we are in a room of 8 people in bunk beds and questionable hygiene.
