Half way

April 28 Terradillos

Chasing our shadows was the game of the day. With the sun directly behind us raging red, our shadows elongated as the sun became a mature yellow. Our feet chased our head never winning. Like the Central Valley of CA, farmland forever. Never seeming to end.
We arrived at our resting stop around noon. Many advantages to arriving early, first into the shower and first to wash clothes and get them on the line. For the last two days we have enjoyed Ca blue skies. The word has been relayed through the Pilgrim weather net, tomorrow will have scattered showers followed by more impressive weather for the weekend. It is time to be tested: we have not had anything but a simple sprinkle once during the first half of our journey. At this location we are at the half way point. 


As we were resting in our room, the door opened and we were introduced to Meta from Slavonia. Cheery and an energetic world traveler. She is such a positive representative of her country wishing us to come visit the islands of the Adriatic.  Meta, If Slavonians are as interesting and effervesant as you,  we will be coming.  At dinner another interesting introduction. Dominque from Germany an outstanding basketball player in a quandary over which of the many paths available to him  to follow. We shared thoughts. His mind keenly shaped by the challenges he faces in today's global world will eventually spell out a partial answer.
