Follow My Journey
The Camino de Santiago is a 500-mile pilgrimage route across Spain. Follow along as I blog about my journey – both as I prepare (until April 2019) and walk (April – May, 2019)
Carrying on to Carrión
Day 17, April 23: Frómista to Carrión de los Condes (22.6 km, 14 miles) I could hardly wait to get on the road today if only because I loved the idea that, as the post title suggests, I would be "carrying on to "Carri... on" (the Spanish pronunciation doesn't exactly...
