Maureen taking a breather after climbing for a couple
of hours. Note all the graffitti
on the side of the little chapel Maureen is resting against,
much polically related, ie activists
who want province of Leon/Castilla to be autonomous.
A ramshackle refugio in the abandoned village of Majurin
run by an eccentric guy,
who thinks he a knight templar, sent to protect pilgrims
from bandits and marauding
Moors!
Taken from one of the highest spots on the Camino at
1550m. Santiago is somewhere
behind farthest peak
Tony above village of El Aciebo. Kate, note the boots
are back on again. Don't have
to worry about me walking around Toronto with socks,
sandals and a pilgrim's staff!!
Maureen outside an abondoned house in village of El Aciebo.
Pity because it
has a great view.
One of the frequent simple metal crosses that mark the
Camino.
A sheperd and his mutt that we met along the Camino path
through the mountains.
The town of Molinseca in the distance, just 7km from
Ponferrada. We are now down
to appprox 205km to Santiago.
