I did not make it as far yesterday as I intended to for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the quarter size blister on the ball of my foot. I don't want to be overly dramatic, but I thought the name of the road that I was walking about 2/3 of my walk today was appropriate given the foot pain. it also reminded me that some suffering is part of the Camino and that my suffering is tiny compared to HIS. Not sure how far I will get today, but I am grateful for the walk. At this pace I should be in Santiago de Compostela by June - of 2018. ;)
