Pontones-Santiago de la Espada

Dear Friends,
3 hours and 15 minutes to Santiago, it said on the signpost. It took us 6
hours. We're still up in the altiplano here, about 1400 metresl above sea
level.
The signpost for tomorrow doesn't even tell us how long it will take.
Still, I've done 712km, and I think I'll be all finished by next Wednesday
or Thursday. I expect a rapturous tickertape reception in Caravaca.
A man the the Tourist Office was convinced that all British people buying
farmhouses in Andalucia are soldiers who've made a packet in Iraq. He might
be right.
Distance today 18.6km.

  • Finished next week? But you're not due back to work for ages yet. We've rented your office out - there are 15 SAP people in there at the moment!
    The olive tree in my garden is looking very healthy - you can come round and look at it whenever you like if you suffer from withdrawal symptoms.

  • Don't worry -if there's no space for you at work I can find plenty of work for you at home! Or maybe you'd prefer to keep on walking now that you're in to the swing of things.....

  • After read the comments of your loving friends and family, If you decide to keep on walking till Pyrinees I could pick up you in Caravaca, we'd take picture from the car and we spend one month holidays in Costa Brava.
