60 days on the trail

Heavy rain over night and this morning, but it eased off before I left and there was barely a drizzle once I got on my way. La Isla where I spent last night was a small town without a grocery store so I stopped in Columba after about 3km to grab supplies and have 2nd breakfast.

From there is was uphill and scattered houses but no more towns until the end of the day. I skirted between forests and the highway with the occasional look back to say goodbye to the coast. I’m really appreciating the time away from the roads. It’s so peaceful and I don’t have to concentrate as much.

Tonight I’m in Villavicencio, there’s a brass band playing in the town square so all the locals are out. I left the concert so I could have an ‘early’ dinner at 8pm. I’m going to take a rest day tomorrow. I’ll stay off the feet and try to get back to full strength.

Morning light at La Isla
Shadows on the hills
Forest walk
Possibly my last glimpse of the Spanish coast.

  1. These coastal pics of big blue skies and rugged cliffs have been lovely. Also pretty to go through those forested patches.
    Good that you’re having a bit of a rest. You haven’t had many in an incredible 60 days of walking!
