First the scenery was much better and we finally went past the halfway mark and got our certificate to prove it. Quite a good feeling.

We still have 2 in our group that may quit: they r currently taking taxis to the end points to try and recover a bit. It’s hard to make the no go decision. hope they can continue.

Today I realized that I don’t care that much about the news anymore. Could be my first Camino side effect. Tried several times to listen to a podcast and simply could not do it. Newspapers?: nope. love the grandchild videos tho.

Spoke with an American who had done 3 caminos. Asked him why. “They are great and the effect is larger once one goes home. “

And so we continue to walk and walk and walk…

Here are more pics

An early start
Little hobbit houses. Basically root cellars
Another fun sign
So many ancient bridges that are scattered everywhere. Beautiful.
