We stayed at a very nice hostel last night, it even had a pool! We had a very nice pilgrims supper with a young couple from Moscow. This is their first Camino. There is also a few Germans, Spainairds, and French on the trail. We had an early start on the road today, but the 20 kilometres seemed to take forever. I was drinking lots of water, but under the mid day spainish sun, I was urinating steam. There must be dog racing tracks nearby, as we seen a few people excercising their racing dogs by taking the out by bike, and even by car having the run alongside. We are now in the province of Extremadura, or as Paul says, "extreme endurance". Also a big shout out today to the good people at Fanshawe College in St Thomad. , Hope your semester is of to a good start. Here are some pics from today's long hot trail. Terry

Terry, when I read it the other day, Day 5 sounded bad. Bad, man. Made me thirsty and head-achey just to re-read it. Things are better now? May you have surprisingly good days for a long stretch, Pilgrim.

Yeah Jamie, the south has been really tough. Long hot days. Even starting at 5:00 am. The further north we go, the better it is.
