So this is it. The end of Camino 2016. I don't even know the numbers any more. I think it is in the range of 250 miles hiked over 21 days. I met more camigos than I can count, sometimes I can't even remember them all without looking at the pictures. I'll figure it out eventually.
What I do know at this point is that I had a great time. I completed the Via de La Plata. I started the Camino Sanabres.
Next year the Camino Frances is on the timeline with Linda. The camino is a powerful drug.
It was a constant race against the rain today. Throughout the day it was sprinkling and then not, over and over. By the time I made it to Sanabria, it was starting to rain pretty good, so I was glad that I picked up the pace to beat the rain to the albergue.
This town was apparently the site of a very important meeting in the 16th century as regards the formation of modern Spain. I need to translate the sign. It says something about two kings coming together for peace, etc.
Getting close to the end. Just three towns and 4 miles to go for the end of Camino 2016.
The castle in Puebla de Sanabria, with the rain falling.
Rio Tera. I've been following it for days.
