2019 Camino Day 11

Today is my penultimate day of walking. It is also the longest day. Twenty miles is a long way to walk. It’s even longer when you’re carrying a 30 lbs. pack. My feet still hurt, even after I’ve been in bed for an hour. We had to walk extra far today because of albergues closed for the season and albergues that are just closed on Wednesdays. Tomorrow should be a third less distance and easier, which is good since I would really like to see the cathedral in Burgos.

My private room at the albergue before I left this morning.

We actually got to walk in some woods. It was very relaxing.

Came upon one of the “oasises” along the Camino. Took a nice 20 minute rest.

The albergue we’re staying in tonight. It’s heated by a wood stove and that’s about it. It not much more than a barn. Which, I guess is what the original pilgrims could have stayed in.

Finally watched the trailer for “The Way” today. It looks like a fascinating trek. Hope you’re have a great experience. Need to touch base about Greek sailing trip when you come back to civilization.
