So far, the day started with a challenging hill that Sarah and I dominated! It made both of us want to tryout for The Amazing Race because we were passing everyone! After the giant hill, it has been mostly downhill with a few uphill moments. There are a ton of little creeks and rivers along this walk that makes it very tranquil! It reminds me of when I had my aquarium!
We always see horses and cows at the farms we pass, but the are usually in the middle of the fields and not along the fence. But today, we came across a little pony that was at the gate of a house. I fed it a Gobstopper (probably shouldn't have) and it started chewing it and nodding its head in enjoyment! Pretty funny.
Although we are almost done, I have just realized how trained our minds are on the walk. Every time we turn a corner or enter an open valley, I will see a sign or logo on a building off in the distance and I immediately think of some sort of American logo, although I know it is not one. Today, we walked out of a forest of trees and off in the distance was a red square with some words on it and I immediately thought of Wendy's. But why would there be a Wendy's in the middle of Spain countryside???
A site for my sore eyes was when we were walking through San Payo and one of the bigger houses had a Sport-Court in their backyard. Definitely wanted to get some shots up. Notice the widened key!!!
We are 8.5 kilometers from Santiago de Compostela and we are going to power through the rest of it!! Blog you soon!
Good times! Keep it up, you are almost there!
