Snore snore snore snore brrrrrr.....
That sums up today...very boring walking along a road - the 20kms seemed like 40!!!! And it rained and there were a lot of very unhappy pilgrims on the road today. And can you imagine some bright spark actually got a sign made telling us we had 6kms to go to Carrion and only 463kms to Santiago.....I know I am German but that one made everyone´s sense of humour fail.
We both ache today - sore feet, sore shoulders, sore souls..
However the sun is now shining which means that one of us is less likely to decamp to the bus stop tomorrow (the German one..I guess that is why we lost the war...)
Anyway - off for a beer....

This is what I call the exquisite pain.....!!!!
Keep it up and keep going. You will get through it.
I'm reminded of the famous Chinese Proverb - 'The Yak moves slowly, but the Earth is patient'. However, going by your slow progress, I'm not sure if the Earth has infinite patience!!!
Hi Nick & Nikki,
Great to see you doing the marathon - friends covered the same journety last year with much the same comments. Marg and I are just back from 2 weeks in SE Queensland - Sanctury Cove Boat Show and a wedding at Noosa and finally 4 days of gold at a wetish Coolum. Off to Sweden later in June and then Thredbo in August - plus of course work at Rio and the new deal to replace Chinalco (announced last friday) where we are having a rights issue and joining the Pilbra Iron operations of both into one JV operation. the latter will need to rum the regulator scrutiny with go live slated for July 2010.
Travel safely and enjoy.
Our younger Andrew is working for Etihad airlines in Abu Dhabi
Regards Ian & Marg Picken
