Well, because I'm a wimp?
I just want to walk.
I don't want to have to fight for a bed
I just want to walk 15-20 k and sleep
See the countryside and get some exercise.
For me, I've been to Santiago; it's more for my health.
Worrying about whether or not there will be a bed is stressful
It's different from the Frances, for instance, the lady reserving beds
She is still sitting in there with 5-6 empty reserved beds and pilgrims are having to walk on
We'll see
I'm just whining because the weather is bad and it just feels like there's been one negative after another. Well, not really. The walking has been awesome. But I have some fear about up ahead. Jirit's reports of no lodging up ahead are troublesome. Luka's report about not getting a ride are worrisome. 20-25 k are my limit. On the Frances I am familiar with the trail and there are always options. This is just a little less comfie. Lol
But we'll see. I change from day to day.
If its not raining too hard tomorrow ill walk to Valdesalor. If its pouring I will bus to Caceres and hunker down two days and sightsee. Then I will decide.
Just venting.
Ignore me :::laughing:::
That said, a person with a tent could get by great from what I have seen so far. Lots if sweet places a person could camp and not worry about distances. Although I think you are daft, grayland, for considering this route in August! The vultures might get you! If you recall, I started in Sevilla in summer and gave up when many if the wells and fountains were dry. It's a heat like no other !
