I have long wanted to use that name in a posting, and this is a chance!
Almost to the end of the meseta, tomorrow it ends at Mansilla de las
Mulas. The crowding has abated a little. Not at all sure where the crowd coming out of Carrion de los Condes has disappeared to.
At a lovely small albergue in El Burgo Ranero, the first not full, I enjoyed the afternoon sunshine, wrote and read a little, and chatted with pilgrims from at least 5 countries, not including the US. In fact, aside from a woman from Miami and her American mother who lives in Brasil, I have encountered almost no Americans. Lots of Irish and Canadians along with a few Australians comprise the English speaking brigade in the great fog of languages on the Camino at this season, a subject to be addressed when not writing on an iPhone.
This began as a blog on the general topic of pilgrimage with postings including examples of pilgrimages, photos and musings on various matters related to that topic. It was abandoned in 2012. I am now Reviving it after abandoning tumblr. From January 2019 it will be more general with coverage of thoughts and travels, though pilgrimage will remain an important element.
