Day 17 – Sept 22, 2022 – Cirueña to Redecilla del Camino (16.88 km / 10.5 miles)
Day 18 – Sept 23, 2022 – Redecilla del Camino to Belorado (11.74 km / 7.3 miles)
At the start of the day, we had walked 234 km or 145 miles in our journey. The steps are starting to blur together and we are finding it difficult to even remember where we were the night before.
We walked close to the N120 highway today next to harvested wheat fields and sad sunflowers. The landscape is so different from the gorgeous mountains and sweet villages from miles before.
We are staying in Belorado in a nice semi-commercial albergue. It has its own restaurant and bar on premise and it even has a pool. However, it was much too cold to swim. We opted not to stay in the dorms tonight and booked two beds in a four bed mixed room. No top bunk for Rex tonight!
I finally got pizza for dinner tonight. Yippie! It was worth the wait. We got two personal sized pizzas and both came out in wood fired oven perfection. They were served with their own cutters. We’d never seen this before and enjoyed the satisfying crunch as we cut into them. We left happy with full bellies.
Day 19 – Sept 24, 2022 – Belorado to Villafranca Montes de Oca (11.80 km / 7.33 miles)
You must be so tough. Hope you get some relief soon.
So proud of both of you!!
Thank you, so do I!
Hope you for feels better, Rex. You guys are amazing!
Hope you find a doctor. Heel pain is horrible. The pizza looked amazing. I know Kara was over the moon 🌙 When she was expecting Tolan she would order delivery so it would be at home when she arrived. Love you guys, so amazed at your fortitude to push through the challenges.
May the force be with you.
I am finally catching up with your trip. You both are really troopers, as they say. So sorry about both of your foot issues. Rex, I hope yours is resolved soon. Your photos have been wonderful, your honest comments about the experience, good and bad are appreciated. I’m wishing I was there (just without all the walking part 🤣) Hang in there, you are doing great! 😊
Hope your foot issue gets resolved. So fun to keep up with you on this journey!
