Oh my goodness! Today was the hardest day yet… 20 miles of climbing high altitudes in most, cold, wind. Steep climbs and descents and no places to stop. We had to choose and ,of course, we chose the road less traveled… The original hospitales route.
We left the alburgue with an old dog as our escort to the crossroads. The scenes were intensely beautiful but it was hard to look up because the hiking was rather treacherous. Bryce called it our day to walk in the clouds! We all were limping and laughing as we hobbled into an alburgue . Hot tea and a hot shower had us a bit refreshed but we are pretty beaten up. Feet and backs are feeling the miles and we are ready for bed! Night night!
Ps.. We ate octopus last night….not certain what I think about that…,
