16th of May – The Hill
I’ve been walking for about 2 and a half hours now, on the stretch from Castrojeriz to Fromista. The walk was quite interesting in the early stages with a big hill to climb out of Castrojeriz and views across the open Meseta with quite a cool wind blowing. We’re now down near a thousand year old bridge as you can see on the video.

19th of May – Is my Camino over? Walking to El Burgo Ranero
I was pondering on this this morning. It’s an overcast day, which always seems to affect my mood. But it wasn’t just that. I feel like I’ve gone through an enormous transformation already on this Camino. There was the physical stage, initially just getting used to the walk. Then I guess you would call it the stage of relaxation as I started to get into the rhythm of the walk.

Some Tips on Camino Equipment During a rest break I thought it might be useful to review some of the equipment that I'm using on this Camino. I might try to do a more comprehensive review when I get home.

24th of May – House of the Gods | David Vidal
Today on the way to Astorga, I took the long way round to meet David at the House of the Gods. I’d heard a lot about David who has been living on the Camino for many years purely to provide food and drink and a place to rest for weary pilgrims. With the number of pilgrims on the track today, I thought I might not get a chance to chat with him, but at least to sit in his open air cantina and soak up some of the energy and generosity that I expected to find, would be a unique experience.
