We're two short days out of Madrid. We have really appreciated all of the recent updates from @OzAnnie and others who have commented on her thread. I'll be blogging at ourboatleavestheharbor.blogspot when Wi-Fi is adequate. If we see something along the way that seems critical, we'll try to post it on this thread or even a new subject specific thread. The stream leading up to Colmenar Viego was manageable today, pictures on the blog. Bien Camino to all who follow.
My blogger app keeps crashing also. For this trip I am using the online blogger website, but it is not user friendly at all. I was very frustrated this afternoon trying to get the format correct. You can see the pictures are different sizes for the last two days.Buen camino, beautiful pictures! If the number of forum members walking is any indication, you should find even more pilgrims as you walk on.
But my off-topic question has to do with your blog. I tried to start a blog on blogspot.com (blogger was the name of the app) but it kept crashing and someone told me it is no longer available. Obviously it is available if you are using it! I see online that it might be only available for android and not iphones, is that possible? I really loved blogspot, and like the format better than findpenguins, which I was able to figure out in a rush after arriving in France and being unable to post.
Looking forward to more! Laurie
What is your blog site please? I would love to read it as walking this route in June.We're two short days out of Madrid.

First one:What is your blog site please? I would love to read it as walking this route in June.
Thank you! That river crossing looks tricky...
Yep, although I didn't experienced it because I took a wrong turn at overthrown mojon and climb up to the right to bici path alongside the autovia. Nice views over the valley, CV and Guadarrama but I won't make that mistake this year. Just follow the river and pass the cemetery and you'll be in CV.Thank you! That river crossing looks tricky...
Given the rise of the forum members taking Madrid in spring I'm expecting similar threads as for Route Napoleon on CF: "Is Fuenfria Pass open yet?" from next year onThe police in Cercedilla told us there is 0.5 meters of snow on the pass, so we caught the 1:30 pm train to Segovia. That city is amazing. Pictures on the blog. Cool wet spring.
I really thought you’d chosen the right time. The weather hasn’t changed much in weeks.From Añe to Santa Maria la Real. Well marked, but a tough 11 km in a freezing, wind blown rain. The albergue does not open until 1pm, so we are waiting in the medical clinic behind the church. Warm and dry. Several shops here, but nothing in Añe or along the way this morning. We intended on a longer day, but had to stop for safety sake.
I know! I am watching the weather too as I am off at the start of June to walk the Madrid and Salvador.I really thought you’d chosen the right time. The weather hasn’t changed much in weeks.
Buen Camino.
Que sera sera.I know! I am watching the weather too as I am off at the start of June to walk the Madrid and Salvador.
Please! That would be so nice.Que sera sera.
More than likely wonderful and warm.

That's very welcoming info because one of our group of three wants to walk it on Sunday.We returned to Cercedilla and did the mountain pass today. It is possible, but we walked on top of deep, old snow for 2 or 3 kilometers. No other pilgrims, two local hikers.
