Total All Caminos: 1642 miles Lodging: Hostel Climbers Inn @ 30 € Total Lodging: $ 135 Taxi: $ 30 Total Buses / Trains: $ 60 Food: $ 20 Total Food: $ 40 Meaningful Moment The concern and care that Adriana and Carlos had for me as I was going down the mountain. And they went extra special to make sure I didn't get hurt on the way down. It's nice to be loved. They both made sure that I was safe and sound as we descended the mountain, stepping in, around and on rocks, boulders and stones.

Random Thought of the Day Ariana commented that she thought she might come back more spiritual, but nothing so far has been spi...

Maybe I need a new challenge and I've reached the point of repeating past adventures. Random Thought of the Day So many people are stuck in their bubble they don't realize everything that's out there. -- Carlos Some hikers we met on the trail of my age were impressed with Adriana being out here and enjoying the hike and it made them think that they want to bring their grandkids. Adriana thought that today's mou...

I feel I'm a blessed man, having them in my life. Random Thought of the Day Sometimes I wonder why I'm out here doing these hikes. Had flashes of that today. Despite beautiful country, beautiful sights, the joy of having Carlos and Adriana with me, the adventures and the challenges and the occasional defeats, sometimes I feel like I'm missing something. On the Road / Notable memories First of all as is usual, the predicted - according to the guides - 12 mile hike, actua...
