Somehow life is just better when you see mountains. After Astorga around lunch we will begin the climb back into the mountains and will be in them until we descend into Santiago.
Struggling to keep up with Allison’s pace reminds me how blessed we are and how fortunate that we decided to keep going. I’m sure there is a life lesson in this somewhere.
The number of pilgrims has increased as three paths to Santiago have now merged. This means that a lot of new faces are blending in with many of the old friends we keep meeting from the first week of our Camino.
Pictures to follow.
