Sorry about your pains, Olive. but remember, pain is temporary, memories are for ever.
I love Logroño
..ouch… this one did feel a bit of a drag… good that you had your music… I do remember days like this from my own two caminos… but looking back, it was always worth it! I was lucky to not have had a deadline, when I had to be in Santiago, which was such a blessing to me! I also never booked a bed in advance, or took transport, because the freedom of stopping whenever I want, was too precious to me, and it always worked out.
A magical memory of mine: just before Logroño, I forgot my walking stick when pausing at a bench, and I decided not to walk back, trusting that I'll easily find the same kind again on the way… but wherever I looked for it, there was not any one like mine (for me not just 'any' stick will do – it needs to be the right one)… so I was a bit frustrated about that… after pausing at the stunning water reservoir right out of town and eventually walking on, there was a steep ascent, where I again stopped to fix a shoe… when I looked up, there was a stick exactly like my lost one, in the grass beside the path, and it even had carved in the name of the last owner, which was 'Joan' – mine is 'Jorn', and it looked almost the same – I happily took it, prepared to give it back, when meeting 'Joan', which never happened, so I walked with it to the very end. 🙂
Those days are tough. You probably made mistakes that you may not have made if you were not tired and/or hungry. Keep smiling. Keep walking. You are getting there.
Thank you! I really like your videos as I walked the same way 3 months ago.
