Walking a Camino lined with big trees near Palas De Rei, Spain today. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames

Crossing the bridge into Puertomarín, Spain on the Camino this morning. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames

Sheep grazing along the Camino near Mercadoiro, Spain today. We noticed a big increase in the number of pilgrims on the Camino after passing through the town of Sarria earlier today. Sarria is a medium size town with a train station that is a popular starting point for pilgrims walking the final 100 kilometers of the Camino. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames

A magical misty morning on the Camino today near Tríacastela, Spain. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #wayofstjames

Today we walked through beautiful mountains and entered the Spanish province of Galicia. This is the sixth province we have walked through on the Camino. It’s now about 90 miles of walking before we reach Santiago. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames

The Dutch version of Wild by @cherylstrayed in our Camino albergue at Vega de Valcarce, Spain today. It was a warm day on the Camino as a heatwave hits Spain. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #pacificcresttrail #pct2019

This morning we visited the Templar Castle in Ponferrada, Spain. The Knights Templar built the castle from 1178 - 1282 to defend the Road to Santiago. Knights Templar was a Catholic military order that was disbanded in 1312. #Camino #Camino de Santiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames

This morning we walked past the Cruz de Fierro that marks a 4,900 foot mountain pass on the Camino. Pilgrims from all over the world leave a stone at the base of the cross brought from home or elsewhere on the Camino. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames

Today we walked the Camino as it climbed about 1,500 feet to Foncebadón, Spain. The town is a mix of ruins of old buildings and restored homes that have been converted into Pilgrim hostels. We have departed the flat land of last week and are now walking in more mountainous terrain again. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames

Today we walked on the Camino through Astorga, Spain — past the very impressive Astorga Cathedral and the Palacio de Gaudí. FYI...We have now walked about 320 miles across Spain and have 160 more miles of walking before we reach Santiago. #Camino #CaminodeSantiago #CaminoFrances #CaminoFrances2019 #WayofStJames
