Twenty Kilometers

We are less than 12 miles from Compostela. Both yesterday and today were unseasonably cool days with intermitant clouds and even light showers. They were long hard days of hiking. We've hit our stride and plan to continue to the ocean after our Peregrino communion on Friday.

A few years ago, Scott and I read together an old Christian classic called The Pilgrim's Progress. In it, a Christian soul is constantly assaulted by a variety of temptations as he travels The Way. An ongoing joke has been the constant temptations of Gluttony our Way. The food and wine has indeed been wonderful, easy to find and well priced. Among the memories of our Camino we will also include the daily cafe con leche, the obscene Botillo Medieval, and the delightful Mencia grape. Good Lord deliver us?
