Super Bock!

 Posted by LP

VTC sitting in cafe in the sunshine with beer in hand 
Plate of fries/chips
Plate of salad (tomatoes, eggs, olives, etc)

The train was cancelled! - we thought we were doing very well, booking train tickets ahead, finding a hotel near the station, getting up in time and so on, BUT we didn’t know that train strikes were happening here - we are now booked on a train later in the day, so what did we do with our extra time?….we found a cafe with outdoor seating and enjoyed a beer (Super Bock is a local larger) and salad and chips/fries (which in our experience is gastronomy for vegetarians  on the Camino!)

PS - we are trying to be as accessible as possible, hence the photo descriptions, etc.

    It looks like a vegetarian feast.

Departure Day

 Map showing the Camino routes.   We will be walking part of Norte starting just to the left of Santander (route at top shown in red).  Just under the word Norte we will take the Primitivo route (shown as a light purple color) into Santiago de Compostela.  Our calculations show we will walk approximately 300 miles.   Today (Friday) we fly to Madrid arriving Saturday morning.  From Madrid we take a train for approximately 4 hours to Santander.  From there we’ll get a taxi to Santillana Del Mar where we will stay overnight.  On Sunday we start our walk    “We should all be grateful for the beauty of this world, but more, we should take the trouble to get off the bus of life and put the soles of our feet to the soul of the world and see those sacred sites with our own eyes”. Irish Poet.     Travel safely, travel soulfully, travel gratefully… Buen Camino.
