Made It Halfway
Day 16 (May 15): Fromista to Carrion De Los Condes
Walked 21 km from 6:45 to 1:30
Took alternate route along river, with the old group. In the evening, received pilgrim blessing in church. I read the English version of the prayer to the English pilgrims, then the priest gave his blessing with holy water. We pilgrims held hands in a circle. I must admit, it was a special and solemn moment.
Day 17 (May 16): Carrion De Los Condes to Calzadilla
Left in the morning at 7, in pouring rain and walked 18 km along a straight route in cold rain. Arrived at 11. I learned that the straight path can be a difficult one!
Here at Calzadilla I am doing my laundry and am sitting at a computer, wearing my last clean clothes and I am freezing. It’s funny, but this refugio even has a swimming pool.
When my clothes are dry, I’ll go to the village for something to eat.
