Hola!
We are pleased to report that we will be arriving in Santiago tomorrow. We spent last night in Arzua, and tonight we are in Amenal. The hotel in Amenal is just steps away from the Camino. We hope to get an early start in the morning and arrive in Santiago mid day.
As we travel closer to Santiago we are noticing the change in relative wealth of the population. The houses are getting larger, as are the yards. And, they have more cows, sheep and chickens. The dogs; however, are getting smaller. Flower gardens are replacing vegetable gardens and the villages are getting closer together,1km to 2km versus 5km to 10km.
The Camino itself has also changed. Our tired muscles are happy to report that the hills are less steep and there times where the path is relatively flat. We are now travelling through many forest paths and in addition to other pilgrims on the path we have also shared the path with the cows. In Pamplona Spain, you can run with the bulls, at this end of the Camino you get to walk with the cows.
Some of you have been asking about photos, we will be posting them to the blog when we get back to Canada. We will also be posting our route including stops and daily kms along with our packing list for those followers who are interested in walking the Camino.
