Last night I slept well and had a better head on today, which meant I could enjoy the camino. What I figured out yesterday is that I have a lot of control in life, and know body can control me! I think going through the hard bit of yesterday has really helped and has given me the determination to keep going and work through issues I would normally shut down instantly.
Day by day I feel I am physically getting stronger and whatever the camino throws at me, I just deal with it, grit my teeth and get on with it! A motto I have learnt from my parents which is getting me through the hard times.
Today was the 1000 metre steep decent down the mountain. A shorter day but still challenging. We are still walking with Dominique and having a barrel of laughs along the way. Going down hills is hard work and I am by no means quick at it, but we sailed through it and saw some lovely views on the way down.
The sun shone as we hit the bottom of the mountain, pass the hydro electric dam and then up another hill to where we are staying tonight. I’m sure the camino just wants to have the last laugh at the end of the day, when you turn a corner and then another hill to conquer.
Staying in a municipal albergue tonight €6. Lovely to see all the people we have already met and meeting new people along the way. The pilgrim menu tonight was tasty €10 for a 3 course meal. Mixed salad, chorizo sausage and chips and flan washed down with a vino Tinto.
