State of the Camino: Half Way

Today is day 28, 25 left to go. We have walked 26 of those days. We have walked 195 miles averaging 7.5 miles per day. We have stayed in 27 different towns, we stayed two days in Carrión de los Condes.

We have skipped 80 miles by bus, train and taxi. We have skipped most of the same parts we skipped last time. It turns out we had good reasons to skip the segments we did, through suburbs and stretches where it’s a long way between places to stop.

In the next week we will walk to Ponferrada. Then the plan is to take a bus to Santiago and start walking to Finisterre and Muxia. We’re a little ahead of schedule so we may have time to see the north coast of Galicia and walk some of the English Camino from A Coruna.
