Quindos León

I did´n get to see munch of Madrid exept the metro system. Went to the airport to straighten things with Air Comet/AeroMexico and then back to the train station. Quite tiring.<br>But Trini was so nice, a perfect host !<br>Leon is a nice middle-sized city with a beautifull cathedral and narrow streets typical from spain, and of course a good nightlife. I went out this night with Ruth (Trini´s daughter) and her friends, and had a great time !<br>I like spain, I´ll be back next year.<br>

... empresa, y, por último. el Presidente del Gobierno de España. Muy emocionantes los últimos dos discursos, el primero porque me nombró a mí en persona (¡con Zapatero escuchando!), elogiando mi trabajo y depositando su confianza en mí. El segundo, porque el Presidente eligió esta visita para anunciar los nuevos apoyos a las energías renovables, y su firmeza en continuar apoyandolas ...

... should I refer to them as Catalans?) going with the bikes as well, so we went together a little, they were nice.<br><br>to be continued...<br><br><br><br>

... the pinnacle of Spanish cuteness. <br><br>Walked around town a bit, then headed back to the pension to pick up my backpack before heading off to the bus station. Coincidence - I would be sitting in seat #38, the same seat number from yesterday. I hoped for another coincidence - that the bus attendant today would also be Maria, and if not, that it would be someone equally as beautiful!<br><br>I was looking forward to arriving in Leon and ...

... the next afternoon. This was problematic since our train was going to leave early the next morning. Dejected and thoroughly annoyed, we returned to the hostel (with our packs), where the proprietor was nice enough to agree to stow our bags under her end table for the next 12 days, free of charge. She is a wonderful woman. With our packs at least 5 lbs lighter (each), we were ready to go to Sarria to begin our pilgrimage.

... was a kind of slap in the face for men of that time. He ends by saying "so that nothing will hinder your prayers." This infers that if you don't treat your wife with respect God won't hear your prayers. What a punishment! Peter then returns to his ever-present subject of perseverance in suffering. Peter says, "Who is going to harm you for doing good?" If you have pure motives for doing good most people are going to see that and appreciate it. If you do something good expecting ...

... slett ikke er tilpasset har fysisk aktivitet. Cafe con leche (kaffe med melk) er den som metter mest - resten er et par luftige broedbiter med marmelade. Er vi heldige faar vi tak i en youghurt eller en croissant. Derfor gaar det bare et par timer foer vi stopper og kjoper boccadillo eller tortillas. Det er fine greier og gir energi i noen timer til. Underveis sper vi paa med frukt, sjokolade og drikke (vann eller aquarius/lomande) Om ...

... from Germany, one guy is from France, one guy is from Turkey, one girl is from Australia and one other girl is from the US (I don't remember which state though). It was the first time I had heard English spoken (really spoken, not like in English class with the kids) since I got here. It was a little weird hearing and speaking English again ...

... a 4 lane highway in the face of oncoming trucks and 3 times having to cross this. The waymarks were lacking and its surely only a matter of time before a pilgrim loses their life and only then maybe something will be done about providing a path. This is something that has gotten to be a little while walking the Camino, the lack of respect the Spanish government has for the Camino ...

... very warm and loving with this spirit of the camino that fills us and helps us take each step. In fact that is what Jorn and I talked about for most of the night, our spirits, and the anxiousness we feel about feeling this alive and bringing this enthusiasm home with us. So good luck, may your camino be wonderful and continue to surprise you, and may you be as open to it as you are out here as you return home Jorn. And may we all, each of us, everyone, on our own caminos. love trae
