I like that! What did you do, in the end, regarding phone, etc.Buen camino from the two wandering peregrinas.
Enjoy the parador and try to be there for the sun setting over the valley (this was from February, so your sun will be well north of this one). Buen camino.Day 2-- Sant Carles to Tortosa. Since I messed up my GPS (par for the course) I don't have exact kms but I would bet it was about 30. The entire route, except for the kms into Amposta and Tortosa, were along the canal of the Ebro and off road. It was hot -- 30 I think-- and no shade at all.
In spite of the seeming simplicity of this stage, the GPS proved invaluable on several occasions. Marking is spotty. As we were walking, we met an amigo from Amposta who apologized and said they were working on it -- apologize??? We are grateful and appreciative to be able to do this.
One woman out walking on the canal asked if we were walking to Santiago. I told her yes and then added that no one had yet said Buen camino. She took care of that, with hugs and kisses thrown in for good luck.
We are in the lovely parador, once again with a balcony. Though I am going to visit the cathedral, I will make sure to chill in the luxury for a while.

Wonderful, Laurie, it sounds like you two are having a blast--and have already met some Camino angels! Confused wanderings are fun, too, so long as you have the energy and time.we met an amigo from Amposta who apologized and said they were working on it -- apologize???

Yeah, I totally loved the one going into Burgos after Modubar de san Cibrian--it was a totally green and painless way to get right into the center of town. Not to mention flat!These Via Verdes are a stroke of genius.
Buen Camino back!--as I write this you're in the middle of the morning (I'm late at night...) and I hope it's a very good one.Buen camino from the two wandering peregrinas.
Admittedly it was in earlier May, but I met only one other pilgrim until I reached Logrono, where one could see a steady stream coming over the bridge on the French camino!No other pilgrims yet but maybe after Zaragoza!!
Thanks Stephen! We will go check out the hospital de Santo Domingo. (I showed your picture to our Hostal owner and she told me where it was.).
We are in Caspe. 24 km from Fabara and a very nice place. We have had our main meal now and will go explore.
We've got reservations for the next two nights --not because of a bed rush but because there are so few places to stay!
Good walk today. All off road and quiet. I had some good conversations with a guy working in his field and a señora who had just picked a lot of cherries and insisted I take a bag full. No other pilgrims yet but maybe after Zaragoza!!
Seems like I've had a cloud over my head the last couple days.
Thanks Castilian. Today was great!!I hope the sun bright for you as soon as possible. Best wishes!
That's the spirit Laurie.Thanks Castilian. Today was great!!
From Quinto to Fuentes de Ebro to Zaragoza to Torres de Berellen. That means I've been walking 11 days now.
Seems like I've had a cloud over my head the last couple days. First, my beloved Salomons started to tear across the top. A woman from the ayuntamiento in Fuentes offered me a ride into Zaragoza so I could buy new boot..
