Sahagún; Day 23; 21.7 km/13 miles Nice, slow, steady pace! Many Pilgrims aren’t sure why we are walking in the dark everyday…until you experience the cool air, silence, and indigo sky filled to the brim with stars, I’m not sure you can appreciate it…then, just as day breaks, we turn around and witness another gorgeous …

Carrión Church and photos
Meseta (Plains) for several days
Calzadilla de la Cueza; Day 22; 23 km/13 miles This morning brought the most constellations and stars that we’ve witnessed thus far…it’s total silence and the awe of God as we walk in the dark reminiscing on creation (Genesis) and each day the Lord has made! I’m breaking up the photos into different blogs as …
Quiet Village; shorter walk
Villalcázar de Sirga; Day 21; 20.3 km/12.6 miles Another early pre-dawn morning…becoming cooler…wearing gloves and long sleeve at the start…I’m still holding out with my shorts! Took an alternate route but somehow missed the river…walked a lonely path with a fellow from AK…I enjoyed reminiscing about my 3 years in AK! Our path took us …

Unexpectedly cold day!
Castrojeriz; Day 19; 20.1km/12.5 miles; to date, 327km/204 miles…not quite 1/2 way… We do have to say with walking around the big cities, we’ve walked another 7 miles Rained all night and we ended up in an albergue with 6 other pilgrims sharing one room and one bathroom…not much sleep! We only had our rain …
Last but not least in Hornillos
Mass was beautiful…after Mass, Fr Manual sang songs with us and prayed over us
God alone provides; Angels among us
Hornillos; 21 km/13 miles We started again before dawn…we had several Angel assists today and walked 5 miles further than our planned stop…visited a quaint old church where a nun prayed over each pilgrim individually and gave us each a miraculous medal to wear… today has been a Blessed day!
Beautiful Burgos
Burgos; Day 16-17; 24 km/15 miles We met up with Ziggy and Susan who we’ve run into since the 3rd or 4th day and walked with them most of the way to Burgos…we left them on the outskirts and continued following the river…we came to a bridge and were discussing whether to cross…and elderly Spaniard …
