- Day 12 Castrojeriz – Poblacion de Campos 29kmEvery morning on the Camino I use my phone as an alarm clock. I typically get stuck on the top bunk, which means my phone lies next to me and risks being plummeted to the floor when it rings to Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 11 Rabe de las Calzadas – Castrojeriz 28kmIt's a bright sunny day and two speedy Norwegian ladies zip past me sporting red hair and hot pink t-shirts. Fresh Camino-meat, I think – there is no way they have been walking for 10 days. I stop to talk Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 10 Cardenuela Riopico – Rabe de las Calzadas 25kmWhen I get to the church of Santo Domingo I go and see the chicken, and then I rush outside to the man at the desk and say “Oh my god the chicken is dead!” He stands up, looks at Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 9 Villafranca Mtes. de Oca – Cardenuela Riopico 24km heard a great quote this morning; “you don't walk the Camino, it walks you.” I feel that way right now with my blister, still king-sized, slowly slowly making my way out of Villafranca. There is a thick mist covering Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 8 Granon – Villafranca Mtes. de Oca 27kmToday I saw butterflies the same colour as the sky. I saw a beetle that looked like the black-queen from a chess set, with a little bobble on it's head and flaming red stripes on it's torso. I heard a Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 7 Najera – Granon 27kmWalking today is great. I can't believe how lucky I've been to have no terrible blisters, no back pain, leg pain, or anything! It's even difficult to stop walking sometimes. It sounds ridiculous, but you get into a rhythm and Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 5 Los Arcos – Logrono 28kmApparently bathing your feet in salt and vinegar is good for them. One girl in Los Arcos was giving this a go and I asked her why, “you know” she said “like acidic a salad.” which confused me even more. Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 4 Villatuerta – Los Arcos 25kmAh, walking the Camino with a hangover. This is tough. I don't get out of bed until 7.30, which is late by Camino standards, and we leave at 8. The biker boys leave later than us and wave as they Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 3 Uterga – Villatuerta 23kmI leave Uterga surrounded by fields of long teal grasses that blow in the wind like the fur of a giant green cat being brushed one way and then the other. Roses grow insanely well here, clambering up farmhouses and Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 2 Larrasoana – Uterga 30kmDay two was a lot harder than day one! My legs are sore and tired, but still, this is so much fun! I'm enjoying this so much and I haven't been lost. I have walked 57.9km in two days without Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- Day 1 Roncesvalles – Larrasoana 27kmAs you can imagine, amongst the 100 people sleeping in bunk beds in the church hall several of them were snorers. Last night was like something out of a warped horror film with at least 9, (count them, 9), different Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
- RoncesvallesI decided to start in Roncesvalles because Michael told me to (and I need all the advice I can get). Many people walk from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port which is in France and involves a big climb over the Pyrenees causing bad blisters, Posted by CharliePepper in Charlie Pepper V The Camino de Santiago | Sep 26, 2011
