Boadilla

April 26 to Boadilla

The villages we pass through wreak of antiquity dressed up as those who live in them can afford. No matter how small the village the church resides in the middle holding it's own as much as time and weathering permits. Awe inspiring nevertheless. This relationship between human generations and the construct of their belief, can be most appreciated by those who walk the endless pilgrim path between these small enclaves. Don't assume the walk is easy. Be sure to view the map of each day's journey. Sometimes you are walking up steep grades, others are seemingly endless horizon to horizon marches. Only to be surprise by the uniquely different albergues you have been dreaming about for hours. It continued to be true when we arrived in Boadilla. Only the included pictures can verify the dimensional beauty and care this artistic family has invested in supporting the wayward ones. 

Tomorrow we plan to walk to Carrion de Los Condes. Then follow the pages till we get by Leon. We are definitely going to take the bus from Mansilla to the center of Leon, stay a night, then bus out to La Virgen Del Camino. Stu
