The camino is not about the survival of the fittest its about the survival of ‘you’ as a human being! I sat back today and watched lots of ‘damzles in distress’, waiting for their rescuers which was quite funny but also annoying to watch. If they haven’t figured this out yet when why do a camino?
Out again at 6am and by ourselves most of the way. I’m pleased today is the last of the mountains, my feet are killing and I would happily allow someone to amputate them right now. 2 blisters and a few spots but nothing major. The up and downs are ruining my feet and knees.
In true camino style the ups and down were steep. You think we would be use to it by now, but each hill just gets steeper but the views are beautiful at the top.
A good few k in before the sun shone down on us today. Again not so many services along the route but apart from a few wrong turns in the mist we were ok.
100km to go tomorrow and everytime I think of santiago I well up in tears, so who knows how emotional I will be at the end.
