The things I missed ... and now found

[GunnarW]

I missed two things during our Camino del Salvador, both just after Olloniego.
1) I missed the old "dried" bridge. I took a picture of the 2 towers but didn't notice the bridge. If I would walk a little bit further and look behind me, I would see the bridge. Here is the picture from Google Street View


2) I missed the leguario marker.
Susanna from Sweden took a picture in her picture resume.
It's here: http://www.caminodesantiago.me/comm...-de-santiago-forum1379492912-148268-jpg.6186/
So I started googling where it could be. I got the hint in the picture that on the left side of the marker, you can park a car. You just see the red/white lights of a car with the color "pine green".
And it must be here. It seems that the same car is parked on Google's picture.

Yes, that is the place where Enders secret sign is.
I saw the bridge and took a pic of it from the road. But as I was in a hurry trying to find the secret, I did not go close to it. Regret that.
I missed something the third day, and that was on the long way through the woods. There was supposed to be a chapel there. I don't remember seeing it. Now I have forgotten the name. Will take a look in the guide book later today.

Susanna,
Could this be the chapel you missed?
"Ermita de San Miguel"
It was something like 45 minutes walk BEFORE Campomanes.
Question: a few hundred meters before the ermita, did an old tree blocked the road completely? Or was it removed meanwhile.

I changed the title to "Things I missed... and now found".
Maybe the start of very long thread?

Yes Gunnar, that't the one. It looks very nice.
I passed a few old abandoned houses, and there I started to wonder where is the chapel? But they were in the woods, not with a view like that.
I don't remember the tree. Maybe there was one, but don't remember where.
On that road I felt a bit grumpy beacuse it was so long to Campomanes, no bar and I was longing for a Kas limon.

Something else I missed was the camino on top of Santa Cristina during the rough count of the corners.
After, I went back down on the same way and continued the camino on the concrete road close to the autopista. Just after the old railway station I found again yellow arrows.
But was it the goal to walk where I put the arrow on the picture? And arrive some where at the right side of the railway station?

Hello Susanna,
Yes, the ermita were just after the abandoned houses. It's strange you didn't see the ermita because it was at your right side. On the picture, the camino comes from the spot where you see some shadow on the grass. But maybe you thought it was another abandoned house.
That part of the camino was also for us very difficult. Lucky for us, there were some nice farmers over there and see what they offered us.

But the positive effect of the sidra faded completely away when there was again a stretch going up at the next village: HEROS.

They removed the old tree because it completely blocked the camino. You had to walk around carefully.
