But today, I am in my hotel room, it is quiet, and I have good light. I posted some pics on Facebook, so if this does not work, look there.
This morning I went on a brief walk around the cathedral, and I saw many of my peregrino friends walking out of the city. I had to resist the urge to run back to the hotel, pack my things and join them. The desire to continue El Camino is great. I am hoping a days rest will heal my ankle. This is the time that doing this walk alone is hardest - having to decide what is bet when rede is no clear alternative, and No One is going to say, "you should do X". I can get myself in such a state that I just want to go get on an airplane and come home.
End of breaking news. Let's see how I do with the pics. I may not be able to title them, and they may not be in order, but, hopefully, they will show some of my experience.
Bob - the pictures are great (especially since I lost all of mine from around Burgos.) I so totally understand your first paragraph - the Camino is not conducive to writing - you are doing an amazing job! Don't know what's going on with your ankle but I had severe tendonitis by Burgos, so for what it's worth: rest more than a day. It's hard but worth it. Take a bus. Take a bus again if it still hurts. Also, you can get 500mg naproxen and an anti-inflammatory gel (Enagel) over the counter at a farmacia. Both made a huge difference for me.
