To Los Arcos … through farm fields we find you

Most of this post will be in pictures but I did want to add a little something…

It’s a beautiful walk through the country side. These old villages have so much charm…. walking it adds to the beauty. You never know who you’re going to meet. Personally, I start my day just wanting to be alone with my thoughts… and my tears… and then out of the blue appears a few people who pick you up. Such a thing happened with Tim and Shane, who made my mother and I laugh practically all day yesterday. I shared our story with them and I feel the need to write about them because I don’t want to forget what genuinely kind souls these two individuals are. Complete strangers who wanted to hear why I was out here. They didn’t mind my ranting, they didn’t mind my tearing up, they sympathized and were compassionate. To Tim and Shane if you are reading this, thank you. You brought a little light into our lives, and a whole lot of laughter. You also played a very bad practical joke on me, that ended in the deepest belly laughs. I will play it on others… to everyone else, beware!

Today’s journey took us across a couple villages, a whole lot of fields, straight to a food truck in the middle of one.

I think everyone on the path today went a little loco. We left Estella early, but the afternoon heat just zaps everything you have, especially walking through farmers fields for hours, with no shelter from the sun except the occasional tree you find yourself huddling under with a few musicians
