18 oct. 2015 Tarifa-Adlanterra 27 km. First day of walking

Holy shit! Pffff. Tarifa to Adlanterra: 27 km, not including the wrong kilometers. It was a good start. Barefooted on a gorgeous beach. I crossed a river, the water reaching my belly. 25 Degrees in the sun it dried right away. On the nude beach I noticed only a few nudies, so about the quality

15 october 2014 Plasencia

During daylight we arrived at a camping in Placencia, near Caceres. The landscape is nice with corctrees, hills, groups of half wild boar, sheep, horses, many storks, milans and vultures.

sunday 5 oct. 2014 Spiritual assistance
