Heading steadily northwards on the VdlP, now having a rest day in Merida, a week and a day out from Seville. Only one morning of drizzle, between Almaden and El Real de la Jara, so can't complain, especially as England seems to be largely under water judging from a brief item on the TVE breakfast bulletin I saw in a bar.
It is very quiet here. In Guillena, there were 2 Murcians and a Québécois in the albergue, but they had been travelling for several weeks on other caminos, so went straight on to Almaden, while I stayed the next night in Castillblanco, as I didn't think a 50km stage on my second day was a good idea.
Since then, in Fuente de Cantos, I met a couple of Germans who were returning to Seville, and nobody else at all (by which I mean other pilgrims - I've met lots of delightful locals) on the camino.
Is there anybody out there?
