The wonderful thing about Tiggers.... is that I have one! Greg's dodgy toe has resolved nicely thanks to the rest days and he is now back to his annoying and enthusiastic self. We are still walking in a straight line by a road, with now a growing number of pilgrims who are increasingly more grumpy as their own injuries kick in. Everyone has an injury. We spent two hours today trying to book the rest of our accommodation as a couple we spoke to have struggled to get any for the rest of the trip. I am focusing now on the days left. In the morning I can say we only have 10 more days of walking. We do have some big climbs and steep descents ahead. My shoulder and knee are still sore, hoping there's nothing long term. I did feel anxious last night as after our rest days I was anticipating the pain/physical effort and a struggle to get back in the zone. Fortunately my music mixes and audio books are really helping.
Greg's update - a decent rest, a late Friday night in Leon and the therapeutic effects of steak and lager have done the trick. Now I'm just sore and ache a bit, rather than lame. Em's been her usual unstoppable self, setting the pace, even though the temperature has crept to 31 or above today. 🥵 It really is a boost to receive texts, and messages via the blog. We've got a communal bunk room albergue coming up soon, at end of a hard day of uphill, probably in the rain. Sure that'll be fun. 🫢

So pleased Greg's injury is easing and he is back 'on the road'. Your pictures are fantastic and I'm so proud of you both for what your doing. Take care and lots of love. xxx
Yay! Great news to hear the dream team are back up and running so to speak.
Look at all you have achieved and focus on all you will continue to achieve.
For each difficult step, think of the absolutely life changing difference your efforts will make to so many.
I have no doubt nothing but good things are coming down the road for you both - keep on keeping on! XXX
