breaking barriers

After my post yesterday I got to thinking that maybe I was just hitting a wall at 10-12 miles so feeling pretty good today I decided to push myself past that barrier and decided I would do 14 miles today but after taking a short break at 12 miles I decided on 16 miles today and I got it done.   I am a bit sore but believe I could have done a couple more if I really needed to but being as I did not really need to I decided it best to stop at 16.   I am done with the long walks/hikes for this week but will plan to do 2 to 3 long ones next week, and only 2-3 miles/day for the rest of this week.  See ya next week!

Vivo Christo Rey!

I feel quite safe in this city while we were walking around so very few homeless but did see some. This morning, I was able to visit the a la cathedral de Santa Maria. Oh my gosh, what a beauty I spent about 30 or 40 minutes in the cathedral and it just took my breath away. I’ll share a few pictures. I got lost trying to find my way back to our hotel or somewhat lost not bad but ended up getting back to the hotel a little late and we managed to missed our train to Sarria so we’re sitting at the train station waiting for the next train which is at 5 o’clock tonight. ...
