Day 15

Hello! What a lovely day we had! My Dad and I made the decision to take today (Wednesday) as a much needed rest day. The day before really wiped us out, and with all my blisters, we thought it best to take a day to relax our bodies.  We got to enjoy breakfast at...

Day 14

Hi all! We have officially walk 2 full weeks on the Camino, what a journey it has been!  We walked a wild 23km (unintentionally). We thought it was just under 20km but clearly we were wrong. The morning started off great, having coffee with friends after about...

Day 13

Hi friends! Today we did 17km and had a great time! We left as per usual, and anticipated that for this 17km the only thing we would pass is a food truck. So my Dad set out early and I left an hour or so later. On my way to catch up with Dad I had to cross a...

Day 12

Happy Sunday, everyone!!  Hello and welcome back. Today was a long day. We did 20km, both leaving at 7am. We got to see the most beautiful sunrise, and we met some lovely new friends! 2 men from the US, and a married couple from Canada! The couple actually lives...

Day 11

Hello dear friends!!  It’s been heating up in Spain and we are definitely feeling it. Friday – Sunday are all 26 degree days. Today we had a pretty “simple” walk that was very flat and straight forward, which we certainly needed. We walked 14km today which...

Day 10

Holaaaa!  Day 10 – we can’t believe it. This is such a weird feeling because I feel like we were just starting Camino #1 yesterday. Yet it also feels like we’ve been walking for so much longer than 10 days. This is such a cool experience. You really come to...

Day 9

Hello! Today was truly a beautiful day! (Thursday, I’m a bit behind haha). We have officially made it under the 500km mark! (Honestly I think we did a day or two ago and didn’t even know it). We began the middle section of the Camino, called the Meseta. It’s known for...

Day 8

Hello! Day 8 (Wednesday) was a lovely lovely day! We spent the morning touring a world famous Cathedral in Burgos, which took over two hours! The Cathedral is the largest I’ve ever seen. Housing a “cathedral within a cathedral”, the tomb of El Cid, well over 30 small...

Day 7

Hey hey, I hope you are all well!  My Dad and I had quite the day today (Tuesday)! We walked from Atapuerca to Burgos, a total of 20km!! We’ve been so impressed with our progress this year, since last year we weren’t doing 20km days nearly as successfully. With...

Day 6

Hello all! Day 6 (Monday) was our first rainy day on the Camino, and it didn’t go easy on us. First thing in the morning someone took my poles by accident. I was prepared to be pole-less (or take whatever was left when everyone had gone out), but thankfully the lady...
