Puddles and Mud and Van Gogh

There has been a lot of rain in France. And there is so much water on the trail. And mud. We don’t have mud like this in Australia. At times, I worry that my boot will get stuck in the mud and I’ll keep going.

The puddles cross the trail so I have to navigate my way around them. The edges are more stable. At one point today the path had turned into a waterfall and I had to go through slowly. Very slippery.

When I did look up from the mud snd puddles I was greeted with a scene that could have been painted by Van Gogh. I am in Laurzerte. A town I have never heard of before and would never have stepped through if it wasn’t for the Camino. The day was tough with mud and steep hills. But the rewards are numerous.

Water running down the track
Puddles and mud across the track
Looking up from the mud
Out through the trees
On top of the world
