On the road

October 16, 2017
On the road
I am in a tiny place that looks, like many of the tiny villages do around here, like a set out of a spaghetti western.  If Terrence Hill turned up I might bludgeon him with my aluminum water bottle and steal his horse.  For those of you who do not understand this reference,  please look up "Trinity" on YouTube.
The air quality is not good today:  there is a large fire burning somewhere and the smoke has closed in like thick fog.  Some are concerned about the air quality.  I guess the fire is about 30 km away.
I have about about 2 km and 100m climb before I reach Cruz de la Fer.
Just an update from the trail.
Love you Snuggy
Photos:
Oct. 16 - Sign, Sign, Everywhere a sign - another intersection with signs to everywhere in the world.
Oct. 16 - Cruz de la Fer - If you zoom in, you can see the Canadian flag near the bottom. In the foreground, there is another pair of hiking boots! Who needs to carry worn out boots or boots that hurt your feet?
Oct. 15 - Mini Cruz de la Fer - Here is a mini-cross available for those not inclined to take the 200 meter climb to the main feature. Oh, ya, more boots, these with flowers in!
Day 30 El Acebo de San Miguel - One whole month on the road. We're on the 'downhill side' of this journey, in more ways than one.
