Looking at the sunrise this morning, I could almost imagine I was just waking from a trans-Atlantic overnight flight, lifting the little plastic cover on the window next to my seat and feeling butterflies about the soon to be landing in Spain to begin the Three Sister’s Camino.
My “flight” was long and boring but uneventful. There wasn’t much to listen to on the radio and the CD player no longer works. The old girl has seen better days. I just enjoyed the quiet for a time.

Once I finally arrived at the “albergue”, I was greeted with great fanfare by the proprietor of the establishment. I wasn’t sure if she was happy to see me or if it was the large cooler of seafood that brought the smile to her face.


After a most delectable meal with good company and even better homemade wine, it was actually time to begin the walk. I wasn’t sure I was going to be much good after a 20 hour “flight”, a couple of lobsters and a rather large glass of blackberry wine. This wasn’t going to be a 20 miler hike, maybe just one hundred feet to the swimming pool!

So for tonight, I’m going to lay out my silk bed liner, (one can never be too careful about bedbugs no matter where you lay your head), brush my teeth and sleep for about 12 hours.
