Day 19
It’s hard to describe or find the right word to describe how we felt about leaving La Meseta and walking this part of the Camino that will eventually bring us into Leon. We both agree though that this part of the Camino is our least favorite part of the journey so far. Most of it parallels four lane highways with cars and trucks whizzing by, bright headlights in your face, fumes, noise, some of the more industrial sections that are usually a part of any big city’s urban sprawl. It was jarring, a real shock to the senses and somewhat disorienting. This lessened the closer we got to Leon, the biggest city we will have traveled through thus far. Leon will be one of our planned two night break and ‘rest’ stops. We managed to find our hotel, grab some grub and people watch for a bit. Not too much walking here today. We’ll rest, plan out what we want to see tomorrow so we aren’t just aimlessly walking about.
