Well that’s the last time I go to bed sober. I was awake until well after midnight. Or perhaps my afternoon siesta from 4 to 6pm was to blame. It was a nicer walk today …

Mike — Wed, 03 Jul 2019 06:38:46 +0000

Today was probably the most interesting walk so far. We saw a man doing Camino on a unicycle. I thought I’d videod him but I hadn’t. We were wandering along when a snake came at …

Mike — Fri, 28 Jun 2019 06:09:12 +0000

The heat today was brutal. We knew it was going to hit 39 degrees and weren’t looking forward to riding 60 kms in it. It was 9.30am by the time we picked up our bikes …

Atapuerca to Burgos

Mike — Wed, 26 Jun 2019 06:10:00 +0000

Today was a nice easy walk to Burgos. Jo’s feet aren’t hurting as bad as they were last year, and her knee is getting better. She even managed to walk down the stairs like a …
