To Aldeanueva del Camino 24km Stage 11

September 22

The first 6km today went through more farmlands-mainly cattle ranches until we reached the Arco de Caparra, the ancient Roman ruins. It was a major city during its time of Emperor Augustus, but now it's a archeological dig sight and a restored archway that is spectacular. The site attracts many visitors, including local hiking clubs that make Caparra their turn around point. The remaining 13km went through open fields and and a few water hazards. It had rained the day prior and therefore the creeks were high. Julie gets anxious when there is a chance of falling in. We arrived in Aldeanueva and met up again with Linda and Michael who we met a few days prior.
