Sept.19,2014 Carrion de Los Condes

This man played an instrument he made, an arch harp-guitar, the guitar has 10 strings & the harp has 8 strings. It sounds so beautiful. This was the 7PM guitar concert I attended at the Church.
The 7:30 Pilgrim Mass started after the concert & the priest that had give me directions for the Albergue Espiritu Santo was the same, Fr. Julio Gomez.

This climber has different color flowers, really beautiful. It reminds me of a flower back home.

Sept.19,2014 Boadilla to Carrion de Los Condes 26km 16 miles

I stayed in Boadilla as my feet were hurting & I was just tired. Fromista is another 5km away. So I left at 06:00 today to make up the time as my destination Carrion de Los Condes is 20.9 from Fromista. I actually walked 26km about 16 miles. I met Fiona from Perth, Australia & we walked all the way together. Very lovely young woman. This was the sunrise over Fromista, kind of threatening but the sun came out.

Sept. 17,2014 On the trail to Castrojeriz

I stopped & sat down on a stone to change my socks, to prevent blisters. These cyclist passed me by & it is unbelievable how they can maneuver these rocky, gravelly trails. There are many men & women cyclist. I admired their powerful legs specially uphill. At times I see them walking along side their bikes in the uphill.

Sept. 17,2014 Hornillos to Castrojeriz

It rained this morning while I was getting ready to leave the Albergue. I put on my poncho & started my walk, but it was not raining so I had to take it off. I always look back at the town I was in as the Sun is rising. This is what I saw, a most beautiful rainbow & then another rainbow just appeared. I was so excited because this was only the 2nd time I saw a double rainbow. The 1st one was in Kaui, Hawaii with Lilia. That was such a beautiful gift.

Sept. 16 Tuesday on the way to Hornillos

I finally took a picture of my shadow with the Sun not too hot today. There is a good breeze & actually rained a little as I approached the tiny village of Hornillos.

Sept. 16 Tuesday From Burgos to Honillas del Camino

This was my bunk last night & for some privacy, I hung my towel, pants, shirts to dry actually. Of course, it is so much easier for men in this situations. The guy above me slept in his underwear
Which is OK, but I couldn't do that. I know because he was so casual about it in the morning.
