April 15. I had one of the longer walks today, than I’ve had in a few days. I did 30 kilometers, about 18 miles. The story today is the weather. I left my alberque at 6:15am and the temp was in the high 30’s. It never warmed up past the high 40’s…with a cold wind. We had two quick passes of hail and sprinkles of rain. I’m grateful that I remembered to pack gloves, I could have used a wool hat as well. I’m in the small village of Ages. There’s maybe 2 dozen houses. It seems like we pilgrims-passing-through are the only industry (besides farming) that goes on here. Tomorrow, I’m off to the big city of Burgos. I’m looking forward to my two day stay there.
