Day 5 in España

I am having the time of my life right now... the views are absolutely beautiful!! I will try and post a link to some photos. I started hiking from Burgos on Monday... to a little pueblo called Los Hornillos and then to another pueblo called Itero de la Vega Tuesday. Yesterday we stayed in the a larger town called Carrion de los Condes and today we are in Terradillos de los Templarios. If you want to have an idea of what this looks like.. click on the link below to see the map!

This was a total of 113 kilometers (about 67 miles, I think)... and let me tell you, I am soooore. I had two minor blisters , one of which I´ve already blogged about but they are practically gone. I am currently hobbling around like a 90 year old ... actually I am pretty sure that 90 year olds pass me on the trail all of the time. Sad. Go them though, this is a super religious experience for many Pilgrims or peregrinos (as we walkers are called) and I have never seen such dedication. I mean, I am ashamed of my 25 year old sore legs every time a golden ager trucks past me giving me a friendly “BUEN CAMINO” shout-out!

Well, I have so many things I want to tell everyone but I am soo tired right now I can´t decide what to write about. I will try and get some photos, which will speak for themselves as to the beauty of this part of Spain-La Meseta, and I will write some of the cool things I have been doing PRONTO!

Highlight of my day.. there was an ICE CREAM truck along the camino today!! Mmmm helado
