Last Stretch…


Today we crossed the 100km (remaining) marker, so we have the end in sight!  Only 5 more days of hiking, including some pretty easy ones.  Today topped out at 93 degrees (and I think our room is at least that too), but we get in most of our miles in early in the day before it gets too hot.


At 100km there is a major increase in how many people are on the trail, since 100km is the official amount one must hike to get the official Camino Compostella pilgrim certificate.  So we are adjusting to the different feel of the Camino, which has always been changing.  

We know what you are thinking.  And yes, I’m pretty sure we 500 milers get more get out of purgatory points than they do.  We will check to make sure when we get to Santiago.  If not, I will lodge an official complaint.  I assume they will bring up the whole “workers in the vineyard” parable technicality, but we will give it a try anyway. 😁

Thanks for checking in with us our blog. We hope your summer is going great!
