Day 10 on Camino.
Just arrived in Belorado.
I have been walking in sandals since Puente La Reina(Day 4).
Now I can walk apprx. 20K before Lunch. It's awesome.
Hoping that these sandals stay with me till Santiago, I am headed to next town, which is Tosantos after huge & delicious bocadillo(con mucho mayo. Yes, I asked for it. :D) & vino tinto here at a restaurante in Quatro Cantones.
Thank you everyone for carings and advises.
You are all angels just like everyone I've met on Camino. ;)

May 1997 (Leon to Santiago); Sections Camino Frances: May 2011, May 2012, May 2013, October 2013, June-July 2014 (Sahagun to Santiago).
I loved Belorado, do remembered climbing the castle ruins and enjoying the wonderful countrysides vistas. The Albergue A Santiago was wonderful (huge private double rooms for 30 Euros, many washers/dryers, kitchen, restaurant, store, beautiful POOL, lovely hospitaleros). Glad to hear you Camino is going well. Buen Camino.

Awesome! So glad to hear this is working for you. Are you wearing socks with the sandals or going barefoot? Buen Camino!

It is so nice to learn that you have the Camino figured out and you are now enjoying yourself. You are a brave woman. I really felt your pain and was afraid that you were going to give up after you posted your blister problems last week. Now it is your turn to try to help someone else that might be having a hard time.

Buen Camino

Almost. I almost gave up. ;)
I try my best to help people who suffer with same foot problem.
It's time for pay back. ;)

Where are you?
Leaving Burgos in the morning, 3 Oct.
We got ahead. Beth's knee swelled and we jump ahead to Burgos to rest. All looks good now. We must be addicted, we miss walking today. :)

You are one day ahead of me.
I am going in Brugos today.
Who knows, we may see each other sooner than we think. :)
So sorry about Beth's knee.
I hope it gets better very soon.
