Calzadilla de la Cueza

After breakfast we left around 8:15 to our next destination Calzadilla.  The distance was about 11 miles, but difficult because there were no rest stops along the way.  No services, no place to eat, no civilization  except for the sheep in the fields and other pilgrims.  It took us about 4-5 hours to walk through treeless and open landscape.  Again, we are thankful for the great weather which remain sunny, breezy and cool.  We came into the. town of Calzadilla and had a wonderful lunch at our hostel. We are even washing our clothes in a washing machine...(what a treat) and relaxing the rest of the day at the hostel.  Tomorrow is a long day of traveling, about 14 miles to the town of Sahagun.  One step at a time is all we need to do.  I am for the rest this afternoon and preparing for the journey tomorrow.  It's hard to believe that we are more than half way to Santiago!  What a gift!!  Buen Camino!!

  1. Thank you for including us in your prayers - we are praying for you every day. Our alignment is interesting ... no rest stop, no place to eat, no civilization - all things we have enjoyed together in abundance. Today washing clothes in a washing machine is your blessing. I love your comment about one step at a time and need to learn to walk with the sun more often. We have so much to learn from each other. Thank you again for teaching us and giving us a vision for embracing life. You remain an amazing example of what we know is possible.

    Much love from both of us and please know you are in our prayers every day.

    Buen Camino!

    Walt and Mary
