Day 27 was our longest day yet, 27 km,on a mostly sunny day, down a mostly flat trail. Had a long 17.5 km part if it without a town but we got across it carrying extra water with no problem. Not sure where we will wind up tonight, probably Sahagun, one of the larger towns along the Camino. We are at the halfway point of the journey both in mileage and in time. We may pick up a little speed in order to have time at the end for Finisterre; we'll see...
“Wanderer, your footsteps are
ReplyDeletethe road, and nothing more;
wanderer, there is no road,
the road is made by walking.
By walking one makes the road,
and upon glancing behind
one sees the path
that never will be trod again.
Wanderer, there is no road—
Only wakes upon the sea.”
from "Proverbios y cantares" in Campos de Castilla. 1912
Poems of Antonio Machado
