Here we are in Astorga & it’s pouring rain. Sitting in a bar waiting for Celeste & ‘Dwin to find more rain covers.

Bars in Spain are such a safe haven where you can have a beer or espresso or tea or even something to eat. And always whatever you order, you will get something extra! Yesterday we ordered a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and got also a slice of bread with pepperoni & cheese. Today I ordered hot tea & got a small cake. Also, no one brings you a tab—they just trust you will pay them before you leave. And NoTips!

Other nice things about Spain:

Wherever you are there is phone service, good water & wonderful people!

We stayed in a beautiful apartment last night & I had the best rest I have had on the Camino !

Yesterday the walk here was extra special. Somewhere in the middle we came to an oasis. A man there had food & refreshment for the pilgrims all completely free. You could leave a donation if you were so moved. Such a good spirit there—would that the rest of the world could experience such love❤️

So the journey continues—the gifts are many!

“All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.”

~ JRR Tolkien's
