I´m back on the Camino de Santiago (Way of St. James). It's been raining here in Spain almost every day since I arrived. They say this isn´t typical weather for this time of year. At least it´s nice and cool for walking. We actually had 2 days of blue skies yesterday and the day before.
My blisters are healing, and new ones pop up every few days... I'm soaking my feet in hot water while I type this message to you on the Internet. This hostal is an oasis... the owner is playing celtic music on her CD player and making dinner for the 3 of us here (Patricia from Brazil, Daniela from Heidelberg and myself). There is a washing machine here, so I don´t have to wash my clothes in the sink today. I have so much appreciation for the things I took for granted back home. It´s nice to live a simple life for awhile... eat, walk, sleep... eat, walk, sleep. And I´m relishing the quiet time while I walk.
I´ve met people from all over the world on my trek, and every day is filled with simple treasures, like sharing a glass of Spanish wine with

It´s supposed to rain again tomorrow. Hopefully, the sun will come out again before I leave Spain in 3 weeks...
Love, Laura

WOW! Your photos are amazing.
I REALLY hope the weather improves for you! You are seeing so much interesting history, and getting to know so many people. Keep up the good work. And good luck with those miserable blisters...
