It’s like looking out of the window all day as you scroll sideways … you will see clouds if any, and the sunrise and its position on the sky throughout the day. If it rains it will rain on your screen too…
Now we are nine.
I vote for the Mozárabe, a Camino I would very much like to walk again one day paying much more attention to historic sites. If I have a second vote, it goes to the Olvidado from Bilbao.
It has been such a treat to walk the La Lana ‘again’ with all of you. A huge thank you to @VNwalking @AJGuillaume and his darling, to @peregrina2000 @Bad Pilgrim @Magwood @C clearly @Raggy @Pilger Franz @alansykes @Doughnut NZ @mspath @Bernice M @Currie and who ever came along…
I would love to...
The Camino from Zayas to Alcubilla keeps you on tarmac road. Why? There is a dirt track through the fields. Maybe it adds 1,5 km, but I would prefer it to the asphalt, wouldn’t you?
I just street viewed Zayas de Báscones and the visual helped me remember the walk from Villálvaro.
We must have turned right and thus NOT passed the ermita as I first thought. We were on a tarmac road for a very long time before reaching Zayas and we walked right through it without stopping...
I only have one photo to show from this stage. It must be from somewhere before reaching Villálvaro. After Villálvaro everything is a bit of a blur … but now seeing your picture @Bad Pilgrim (post 211), I think that @Magwood and I went straight ahead, we didn’t turn right at this point.
Before we leave San Esteban de Gormaz, I want to share this photo of an unusual wind vane with you. I spotted it on one of the houses close to the Castillo wall…
I was introduced to Orujo de Hierbas by some cyclists on one of my Caminos. They strode into a bar and ordered Orujo in small glasses and rinsed them down in a hurry. What on earth was that stuff? Was it another kind of yellow arrow? Before they cycled on, they offered me a glass. I have been a...
Yes, @Magwood and I did stay at Hostal Moreno … for several days … for multiple reasons.
The hostal was not so charming, but a very friendly place including a bar and a restaurant. (The look of the bartender made us think of The Addams Family - or maybe we were just exhausted after the long...
Yes, you totally ruined my good intentions. 🤣🤣🤣 What fun we had! But Maggie, if you hadn’t told the story, it would instead just be a completely harmless photo of someone ENTERING the castle … 😁
Here is one of the GR86 markers on route to Caracena. When I revisit this photo I can’t help...
