Adventures on Wheels and Rocks
We've arrived in Santiago!800 kilometers, lots of fancy toe blisters, over 300 euro in coffee , and many new friends has made this a fantastic journey.
The cathedral itself is under construction right now so arriving was a little underwhelming. We couldn't go in the front door, we couldn't put our hands in the stone pillar and during the pilgrims mass they didn't do the smokey swinging thing. (I'm sure there's an actual name for that, but I don't know what it is)
Welp! The title of the post says it all, we're closing in on Santiago! Today I think marks the 70 mile marker, I can't believe we're so close! Our last few weeks have been full of cafe con leche...
The camino in all of its golden glory.
Well Renee and I are SICK. Like really sick. We are currently staying in an Albergue run by nuns, both of us wrapped up in our sleeping bags and huddled by the heater. We’ve been fighting off this cold for a few days now, but today and yesterday it really hit us.
We might be taking a day off tomorrow so I thought I would use this down time to get some blogging done.
We've been walking officially for one week!And now it's time to take a rest day. Michael thinks he pulled a hamstring And we're taking a relaxing day off in the city of Logroño. We're staying at the Municipal Albergue on the second story and it's probably one of the nicest places we've stayed so far.
