Los Arcos to Logrono

16 mile walk today. I felt good. I’ve left the Navarro region and I’m now in Rioja. I suspect that I’ll be seeing more vineyard while I’m walking. Today marks my one week on the Camino. I’ve got somewhere around 100 miles behind me…another 400 to go!! It’s been quite a week. I’m feeling ok walking and glad I’m doing this, but it’s not without periodic lingering doubts about whether or not this was worth the fatigue and sore legs. I’m still in it and still feel committed to finish. The positives are out weighing the second thoughts. I’m having dinner tonight with Enrique, my Camino amigo from Madrid. He’s leaving the Camino tomorrow to return to work. He’s been an enjoyable comrade to have on the Camino with me. It’s raining now. It will stop in the morning and start up again mid-afternoon. I hope to leave early tomorrow morning to beat the rain. Tomorrow is a 17 mile day.
