Camino 2013

Today was a day of put your head down and just walk. I started with 50k to go to Santiago.

Pulpo from last night. This restaurant in Melide is famous for octopus. It was delicious.

Tomorrow I will walk to Santiago and finish my Camino. Amazing!

Location:Carretera Santiago-Guntín,O Pino,Spain

Today was a crazy day. I got up to rain. My plan was to walk 32k. So off I went. It is crazy for me to think about just putting on my rain gear, covering my pack and hitting the road, but that is what I did.

Since it was raining there is just one photo today.

Melide is famous for Pulpo which is octopus. That’s what I am having for dinner. I will report back.

Today was a beautiful but windy day. I walked 30k with some serious purpose.

Very cool the water just flows down from the hills. This is dairy country. Note the lush green grass below.

Check out the ostrich

Last night I was sitting in an Italian restaurant having dinner and met a pilgrim named Brian from Auburn, CA.

This morning I met him again with his son-in-law also Brian who is a 1999 grad of Jesuit. Can’t remember his last name though. His brother graduated with Matt.

Quite the modern house.

I walked across this bridge today. Beautiful lake.
