DAY 27 on the Camino de Santiago

DAY 27 on the Camino de Santiago. Today began as a wonderful day with a long climb to Cruz de Ferro where I left my rock that I brought from home as a symbol of my burdens. I smugly thought to myself, “I have gotten so strong. I could do this all day.” 🙄😒 Then.... the rest of the day kicked my ass. I still have a cold and perhaps a small fever and this was one of the more challenging terrains I have endured. I hurt - everything from the thighs down pulses in pain. Tomorrow will be my first taxi ride as I am going to sleep in and skip a day to help my body recover. Just like that - I made that decision. It was easy. Boy, I’ve come a long way. 💗💖✨😊 Buen Camino!
