We reached a milestone today. Cruz de Ferro, a monument that sits 4,934 feet above sea level, has become a symbol for the Pilgrim way of St. James. A place to pause and reflect, many Pilgrims carry small stone to leave on the pile as a personal token of their individual journey.
We each added our stones and continued along the trail, passing this funky little snack bar in the middle of nowhere.
The taxi signs are becoming more common along the way. Perhaps tired Pilgrims are looking for a break.
Blue skies greeted us this morning as we headed back down into spring weather.

Hi Pat,
Great to hear from you. This continues to be an amazing journey. Sun should follow us for at least the next few days. The feet are dog-tired each night, but they continue to walk!

Too cold for a swim in the river? I love their public “swimming pool” just beneath the bridge!

There were some feet soaking in the river this afternoon…but not ours!
