I’m not sure how this photo looks on a large screen but it looks like a painting when viewed on my mobile. The Camino route between Estella and Los Arcos offered many such vistas: various shades of orange, rolling earth showing through hay stubble; the occasional ancient crumbling building draped over a hilltop; and a line of stony, steely-coloured mountains that split the earth from a dramatic cloudy sky. Just a gorgeous combination of colours. Whilst this section was one of the easier days walking (slope-wise), Los Arcos marked 135 kms in 6 days and my feet were grumbling for a break. I bowed to their command and the next day I took a bus to Logrono to settle into a single room for a couple of days break. The bus criss-crossed the Camino trail and proved a useful opportunity to step back from The Way and view the route in a larger landscape. It is easy to forget that what has become your daily work is a small part of a much larger country.
P.s. To any South Australian friends reading this, I have been thinking of you and hoping you are keeping safe during the storms.

So far so good with the rain here. The roads into my places has turned into mini rivers, a few trees down, but both Missy and I are fine, just wondering why we are not on the Camino with you. No work in the vineyard is possible with this weather.Love your posts, it is the dayly beacon in this lousy rain xxx
Have seen some horrendous images from other places in the hills. So, good to know you’re doing ok. The Camino has been here for centuries and will wait for you to come. I would be too slow for you – he he! Back on the track tomorrow. xkx
thinking like Vibeke, should be there with you. You paint a very good picture. Hey girls where should we all go next year? Good idea to give yourselve a couple of days of but you are doing well with the kms, Sorry to hear about the storms eleswhere, all topsy turvey we are getting good sitings of the Northern Lights here even down south and i saw them on my way home from south Wales on Tuesday night, fantastic.

When things kick off in South Australia they is usually also some interesting weather event in the UK. Bugger that i’m missing northern lights. Back on the track tomorrow. Just doing 14 kms. Not sure where for next year. Let me get through this one first! xkx
