This is a story about two school friends, Arlene and Lori reunited by our 40th Highschool Reunion. As children we climbed trees, went stream treking, climbed rock walls and caught snakes in Cape Breton, NS.. As semi retired, Moms and GMs we are ready to renew our friendship through adventure on a larger world scale. This European trip is built around el Camino de Santiago with extra treats added on. This blog is our way of sharing the walk with our family and friends. Bien Camino! Arlene

Rest Stops.
Friday - Aug 31
We did 18 km today and are sleeping in Santo Dominga del Calzada. We are in a ancient building. 5E with Nuns in long habits hosting.
Inquiring minds want to know about our rest opportunities. We were both worried about this but it has not been an issue. We seem to find enough little cafes and mini kiosks to buy something and use their facilities. It has amazed us on many a day that we could walk so long, drinking lots of water and seem to sweat most of it away.
This is what we saw as we entered the edge of one small town today. They provided some interesting rest seating but were firm about the limit of their hospitality. I guess some pilgrims are having control issues.
Pilgrim A and D
Sincerely
Arlene
