Day 17 - 33km
242.7km to go
I think I learned something today :)
My pain overcame me today and I spent the whole day in agony for what purpose?
To arrive at Rabanal del Camino and meet the most amazing people!
I have been given a challenge to not only slow down but slow down considerably and let all the walkers pass me?
For me this is a serious challenge something I will battle to do but something I am writing now and I will Adhear too!
I met a guy called Dave from England who like me raced through completely forgetting to enjoy himself he is now back a second time to do it and do it slowly!
Today I hobbled at the slowest pace yet and spent the whole time trying to push my body in turn I met and walked with lovelly people whom otherwise I would of sped past!
How many people have I sped past and not giving a smile a gesture a minute of my time?
Maybe that's the meaning of the Camino?
Imagine if I sat on the track and greeted every person that walked past?
Maybe I would see the true spirit that is alive and abundant on the Camino!
At the Albergue I was greeted with warm smiles a warm cup of tea and the company of 5 amazing Australians, 2 Irish girls and 2 english girls!
We joined at 5pm for a high tea with cake and stood around talking about everything!
From travisty to bliss and for that I am thankful and something magical is happening :)
