Camino climbs to new heights of beauty

Sunday took us up again to the medieval mountaintop village of O'Cebreiro. We climbed 2,400 feet; most of the ascent came during the last part of the 12-mile trek. We stay in the mountains for awhile and will drop down to our destination, Santiago, now just 95 miles away.
We began Sunday in a river valley, then climbed quickly. Sue took the photo of me about half way up our climb.
We shared the trail with a rancher and his stock. O'Cebreiro offered the perfect resting place; our room is on the upper right of the far building.

      Thank you, Jeannie.
      We are about 80 miles from Santiago this afternoon. Rain day tomorrow.
      This isn’t for most people, I think, and there are moments I don’t think it is for me, to be honest. But, overall, the Camino is fantastic…it will be an experience that will be a big part of me forever.

      It’s all relative, eh?
