I thought it was time to show another map. I found this one interesting because it had little blocks by region and by what must be an average day of walking. Leischen is in the area left of Leon called El Bierzo. Vega de Valcarce is not listed by name.
You might be interested to know that they have shared statistics of our blog. It says that our audience of viewers is from around the globe. Most of the family are getting this by e-mail, so their statistics are not listed, only those who check into the blog itself.:
69 - US
34 - Spain ( at least 20 from Leischen is my guess)
4 - Germany
2 - Puerto Rico
70 % of all those who log in are on iphones or Apple devices.
80% of those who search for the blog use Safari ( Apple search).
The blog is viewed approx. 13 times per day over and above the e-mailed copies sent at publication.
It is surprising the information you get with these things.
I walked through some of the most beautiful vineyards today. Isn't the light wonderful?
It took me a little more than 8 hours to reach today's goal. Tomorrow I climb the last mountain into Galicia. I hope to be in Santiago a week from today.
How is your body holding out?
My right foot is a bit iffy and I think I got a little overheated today. I am going to take a siesta before I go out and explore the village.
The pilgrims menu was actually quite good tonight.
It is Garlic Fish.(fried with French Fries)
I see there is another abandoned castle on the hill.
They are everywhere. Spain was a group of very small countries until not all that long ago. So there were many many kings and Lords.
When we were in France we could see that the border between the two countries was constantly changing.
They like to argue about it to this day. The argument was still very present in the Basque Country. There was graffiti everywhere about it. I understand it is the same in Galicia.
