Halfway (according to my guidebook)

Well we´ve made it to the halfway mark (according to John Brierley´s guidebook). The place is called Terradillos de los Templarios and last night we stayed in a new albergue which was absolute luxury.. Gitta, Eric and I stayed in a room just for the 3 of us and I was sooo stoked as it had an ensuite...hehehe... So far this is one of the best albergue´s we´ve stayed in.

Yesterday was a sad day as Eduardo finally left our group (and then there were 3)... Due to a knee injury and the little time he has to walk to Santiago Eduardo decided to catch a taxi from Ledigos to Sahagun and then train to Leon where he´ll continue his walk to Santiago.

Good luck my friend remember ´piano piano arriviamo´ thank you for everything you have been one of my Camino angels on this adventure, I´ll miss you heaps...Ciao and Buen Camino bello.

It´s funny cause Eduardo use to be our motivator, in the mornings he´d get us all up and out of bed and this morning was the first morning without him...Man we are sooo lazy this is the latest morning we´ve started our Camino (9:30am) usually we start around 6:30am... Eduardo where are you...hehehehe... I think I´ll have to be the time keeper in the mornings, I may just buy an alarm in Leon...hehehe

More later....

I´ll jump on later to write more, but now it´s time to walk walk walk...
