416 km's to go. Zamora has a population of 66,000 and is the capital and largest town in the province of Zamora. Of course it has it's plaza de major, and it's cathederal. It is an old walled in city, with Romanesque architecture. We were lucky to have missed the rain on today's walk, as it had rained during the night instead. The rain really made the trail nicer, in that there was no dust and the ground was not as hard. One interesting thing, was a field of sunflowers, totally dried out and all brown. ( see Pic) There was also some type of monolithic Camino structure, consisting of 3 large stones with engraving, surrounding a central fire pit. Very strange looking, and out in the middle of nothing. (Again pic) Anyway at a municipal hostel here, washing clothes and getting ready for another walk tomorrow. Luck was with us, we arrived just before the rain started! Here are today's pics. Terry

So, maybe 20 days left 'til Santiago? Great job. My brother (retiring this year) has been thinking about tackling the pilgrimage. What do you recommend? Do you think that this route is a little tough for a first-timer?

Would recommend the Camino France's for first Camino. Level of support and infrastructure for pilgrims is top notch. Still not a walk in the park tho at 800 km's. There are also some shorter ones.
