Back by popular demand….the green door!

 Posted by LP

I appreciate you asking me about green doors, we have passed by many - here are a few:

A green door
A green door and window
A large green door of a church
A green gate
A green door (particularly nice shade of green)
A green door
A green door about to be thrown into a skip/dumpster…what a terrible  shame!
A green door on a boarded up house 
A green door (also a nice shade of green)
A blue door for VQT
A green gate (note the alarm company sign -  we have not walked through as much rural poverty as we did last year) 
A green door of an old stone building 
A green door of a church building 
A green door 
A green door and window - with a Camino sign 

Thank you for indulging me :) 💚

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.

A Wet Day

 Posted by VQT It was a constant misty drizzle all day.  We chose to just get damp instead of wearing rain gear.  From the time we started walking at 8:30 until we finally found an open cafe at 12:30 we did not see another Camino pilgrim.  At the cafe A from Germany (who we’d met the prior day) walked in and he also had not seen another Camino walker.   Walk today was through suburbia and farms.   We can always find something to entertain us or to take a photo.   Large farm horses - huge hoofs.  We’ve seen a lot of horses and farm horses.   Black tomatoes.  I googled black tomatoes and learned they are more nutritious than red tomatoes.  Can’t remember seeing black tomatoes in any of our stores.   Window framed with blue teal colored trim and a pot of red geraniums on the sill.   Garden art.  Stacked painted tires and wooden gardening clogs.  The clogs do not look very comfortable but we’ve seen them next to door...

As we neared our destination we switched to the booking app map which took us off the Camino route and up and down and all around until we lost faith in the directions   Called the hotel for help.   Estella said she’d come get us in her car and to send her a pin through WhatsApp of w...
