Day 25: Astorga.

Just asked Wig to check the maps. We have walked over 500 kilometers!  About 2/3 of the way to Santiago.  I haven't been paying attention to our totals until today, happy to just know how far to the next break!!  I'm surprised how much we have done, but I guess if you walk at least 20 kilometers a day for 25 days that's what you get!

Today, I was happy that I could even walk. My troublesome hip gave me some twinges of pain yesterday, and all evening it was stiff and sore every time I stood up after a rest. But I woke up feeling great this morning and didn't have any problems walking today. It was another gorgeous day!

Astorga is a beautiful city. We toured the Gaudi palace and museum last year, so this time we checked out the Roman museum. Lots of Roman history here, and there are some excavation sites around town. Fun!

The other claim to fame for this town is chocolate. But the chocolate museum was closed for remodeling. We were hoping to see it as we got here just as it closed last year too. Guess we just have to console ourselves with some more chocolate snacks on the trail tomorrow!!

Miss every one! Hope you are all well!!
