My final day of walking was another long one, about 36 km or 22 miles. It is always a relief to finish a Camino, but also a little sadness knowing you will not be doing the same walk, eat, rest routine tomorrow. I am staying in the very nice albergue here in Zamora for the third time in the last four years. Hospitelero(a) run, it is one of the nicest on all the caminos. One hospitalero here is from Canada and has walked as many caminos as I have, so we spent a lot of time talking about our experiences. Tomorrow, my main walking will be to the the bus station to go to Madrid before flying home on Sunday. On this Camino, I walked 600 km. That is 372 miles in 20 walking days or 18.6 miles per day. Most was through relatively flat farm country, but there were a few days of pretty tough and steep/mountain walking.
Walking out of Toro this morning
