Today I pass the waymark 100.99 km. So I probably end up at just over 1200km. I expect to arrive in Santiago on Friday, october 4th.
Because it was a short distance today, I walked a lot with other pilgrims. No rush and we talked a lot. This morning I first had breakfast with Christina at a bar. Soon we came across US Peter (there is also an Aussie Peter) and a little later Edith with her husband. The route is again beautifully rural. We walk a bit on an old road.
Because we talk a lot, we walk wrong. The others decide to walk on and pick up the route further on, but that means quite a bit of walking along the road. I walk back 300 meters (down), find the right path and climb up again. It is a nice path across a number of farm yards.
The 100.99 km point is at the entrance of Baamonde.
Due to the rain we quickly reach the vey large albergue of Baamonde (94 beds). I can still get a lower bed in an 8-person room. Better than the mega dormitory upstairs.
Shame about the weather. It is unpleasant to sit outside and a hand wash will not dry. Hopefully better tomorrow.
Do you want to support Professor Conny during her 1200 kilometre walk for Chromosome 6?
