On Sunday, Day 28, we started the final third of our journey from Astorga. The math says it all: 164 miles /11 days = 15 miles a day with no more rest days. And we start gaining altitude. High = cold, windy and (maybe) rainy, although so far we have had extraordinarily good weather. Sunday was cold, sunny and with a high headwind as we started the climb. The "Igor" look is in with the "Buff" neck protector pulled over the ears for warmth when we stopped for mid morning beer.
Above is the little wayside shrine "Ecce Homo" right outside of Astorga. Below you see us bundled against the high wind.
