Half Way There
Finally made the half way point in our Journey. It has been a long three weeks of walking, still two more weeks before we reach Santiago. The views are amazing! Every town has its own personality that you will never get a chance to see again. Towns are located about 5 miles aparts in certain areas. Over the last four days towns have been futher apart forcing us to stock up on foods and water for meals. We arrive in Leon, Spain tomorrow with a short 10km (5miles) walk. Other Camino walks have been walking 30km days just like us to spend as much time in Leon before heading out the next day. Over all there will be many things that will be changed in my life when I get back.....and not taken for granted. We are very SPOILED in the United States.

It's been awhile
So we have been walking for 8 days now and have walked over 243km. (150miles) I am very tired and very sore. Only have one blister that I have been nursing for the last three days. It's now a blister under a blister. OUCH!! Weather has been amazing, with evening rain showers starting around 4pm. Today we were caught in the rain for the last 5km of walking. Very pleasant drizzle, but still needed the rain gear to keep things dry. Humidity has been very high due to all the rain, making clothes harder to dry. We were lucky tonight, we found a Casa rural that had a drier. Now our pack will be much light due to not carrying wet/damp clothes. Have taken lots of pictures. But for some reason ipad2 does not support adobe flash...oh well guess you guys will have to wait. Trying to set up a relay point in the states to help post the pictures. So hopefully soon. Other then that we are having a blast!
