For the first time in fifty days I’m not sure what to tell you. My thoughts are turning to life after the Camino.
Early morning mist after leaving Casa Domingo
I’m ready to stop, to do something different.
Always time to pose
But right now it’s difficult to imagine a routine other than that which has consumed most of the last fifty days:
Walk
Wash self and clothes
Eat
Sleep.
Cows have the right of way on the Camino
But to put all this in perspective, I’m writing today’s post in a noisy bar over a bowl of lentil soup. At centre stage … oops … At the bar is a couple locked in a passionate, oh-will -you-get-a –room, embrace that has continued for the past twenty-five minutes.
Rather than reflect on life after the Camino, much less the meaning of the Camino, John and I have been fully engaged in determining their nationality. John thinks he’s Italian, she’s Nordic. He’s probably right. As for me, I think it’s a “Camino” relationship.
The Way
Ribadso is a small hamlet about 40 kilometres from Santiago.
The road to Ribadso
Tomorrow we walk to O Pedrouzo, and on Saturday afternoon we’ll reach Santiago.

Life after the Camino. Now that’s a thought. I for one am going to miss your wonderful daily write-ups and photos. And I am curious to know why you embarked on such an ambitious journey. Are you staying on in Europe for a while or heading back home? And my final thought is “wow, that backpack looks heavy!” Stay safe guys, nearly there now…
