Day 11 Oviedo

Hardest climb ever

Pile of fresh lamb's wool.

Sidra, sidra, every where,And all the casks did shrink;Sidra, sidra, every where,Nor any glass to drink?

The fork in the Caminos every peregrino faces. Right continue on the del Norte or left to start the Camino Primativo? Primitive is the centuries old original which was consider the safest route by first millennium peregrinos.

W to make time today I used Google Maps almost exclusively but managed to stay on the Primativo most of the day. Only two other peregrinos were past. In the cities Google is mandatory as street signs are all but nonexistent in Spain. It may be a Monistar conspiracy to force the Spanish to use more gigs.

What appears to be a brand new grain elevator. I saw most as fading testimony to the hard life of grandparents. But many had corn openly drying.

Today's ride: 65 km (40 miles)
Total: 754 km (468 miles)
