once more, thank you. All your photos are great, but three touched memories in particular: the shadow, the church in Torres del Rio, and the book.

I love the long shadows in the morning.

Would that it were so? Btw....I saw the movie “l’ll push you! “Who gave more to the other....the man pushing the wheel chair or the one being pushed?

I am confused... Villamayor TO Viana?

I guess I'm a bit confused... Villamayor to Viana? Villamayor is around 70 kilometers to the west of Viana, near to Belorado. In yesterday's blog you mentioned walking from Villatuerta to Estella to Irache, and then you wrote that you planned to stop midday in Villamayor.

Are there two Villamayors? I am sorry for my confusion, but I am having a hard time picturing the progression on the Camino

Davebugg, There are about 7 of them i think....

Ok. I see my confusion. It looks like the reference is to Villamayor de Monjardin. Mea Culpa.

That’s the place, where Hogar is.

This is a very good question

I’m flattered that you thought it was possible for me to get to the other one without a jet pack

Wonderful blog, thank you for sharing. British wit is much appreciated as well. You're allowing me to cheat somewhat on my planning, what little there is. Should I arrive in a village previously scouted by you, my choices will be simpler. Enthusiasm is growing for my (our) first Camino, Oct to Dec, SJPP to Santiago. We continue to wish you the best.

I gained a lot by reading this forum before I left, so the least I can do is give back in this way.

Love reading your blog ... thank you

It was good to see there are still those beautiful South American hammocks in Villatuerta. It’s many years since we stayed there. We stayed in the Dutch albuerge for a couple of days ... up in their ‘sick bay’. It was great fun helping to cook that communal meal (it was the least I could do, to thank them). Such a warm, welcoming place and such lovely people
