Day 14 8/5: Carrión de los Condes => Terradillos de Templarios
[Note 15:46]
A challenging day to walk
Relaxed - after a nice quiet and easy night without earproppers - and without
problems from the famous sisters. A place I give my best recomandations.
Henrik Tarp writes in his book about the Camino, which also (welldeserved)
made him knight of La Orden del Camino de Santiago, that this days stage is
one of the worst because of boring landscape 'exhausting and grueling
walk' in baking sun. Well! The sun was glimmering by its absence.
That he though that gets his right is due to the strong wind, first from south
as a stiff gale - just reached to change to rainwear before rain sat in -
after this wind turned to west as storming gale and finally as a real storm.
Lied off a little again and rain stopped nearly on time according to yr.no.
It has actually through these two weeks been impressing precise in
its forecastings.
Though the tough weather, we are impressing many pilgrims in tagget as sceduled here
in the knights templars area, where the wind again is stormy.
Has been fascinating to walk on these original more than 1000 years
old pilgrimroads, which has been entered by millions of true pilgrims.

Midday a real good and healthy chickpeasoup and a cup of coffee.
Still good in the stomac.

This is why I'm happy about my choosing real rainwear
