Day Two Camino Del Norte
Who Can Imagine Better Weather?
I heard del Norte was harder and it is true; it makes the Portuguese look like a cake-walk and the Frances easier.
80F of sun up never-ending steep inclines and grueling downhills on sharp rocks and mud for 17.5 miles mostly in flip-flops. Wow. It took me 9 hours!
Out of 15 people leaving my albergue this morning, only 3 of us came this far and we are beat! Happy, but tired with high-fives all around for surviving the day.
The walk was stunningly gorgeous, showcasing the northern coast of vineyards, pastures, mountains and sea.
The closest restaurant got my business and I scarfed down a meal as if I hadn’t seen food in a week; pretty sure I was the unattractive American Pilgrim eating.
It will be an early night in a Donativo bunkbed. “Camino Provides” stories are awesome! (2 already today!)
Buen Camino!

Some books are discovered after they’re published.
Book One is experienced while it’s still unfolding.
Act Two is an invitation into a living work of art where stories, films, photographs, reflections, and creative discoveries come together as the manuscript continues to take shape. Every visit offers something new because the journey is still alive. You are invited to explore it now.
