We began our journey yesterday anticipating a wet day. You can imagine our surprise when just a few minutes into the walk it started to snow and continued heavily for the entire 18km´s of our trek. We stopped our journey short (we try and do over 20km each day) because we were cold and wet. The snow was beautiful and we did enjoy walking through it as it fell quietly around us. We walked fast and I think we made record time reaching our destination . It was not a good day for getting clothes clean and dry!
Today we walked on a further 20km´s to Burgos where we are staying in a lovely little 16 bed parish hostel above a church. This is a beautiful city full of history. The Catherdral is one of the main attractions and it has been fascinating to explore the churches in the towns we have passed through, many of them built between the 12th and 15th centuries.
I will try and post some photos now... this has not been possible because of the way the coin operated internet computers are set up here.
Question - why is it snowing in Spain in May????
