It's hard to believe that we have less than 200km to go to reach Santiago, and surprising how quickly the time has gone. We've met so many interesting people along the way. We continue to meet a few from the first week, but many peregrinos have slowed down, stopped or moved on ahead of us. Today we met a lady from Atlanta Georgia. She is 66 and had knee surgery three months ago. There are some remarkable people doing El Camino, and they are very inspirational. And it's hard to complain about sore feet knowing the challenges many of these people face.
Las Herrerias was our final stop for the day. It is not a big town – one albergue and three bars, but it is going through transformation with the restoration of old buildings and new sidewalks and streets. Historically Las Herrerias was known for its iron forge, which is evident at our albergue – with an iron designed door and an iron narrow table built into the concrete outside the albergue. Today many peregrinos continue past, but I suspect by next year it will become a trendy place to stop. See Pictures>>
