Meaningful Moment

Being back on the Camino de Santiago.

Getting to use my Spanish again.

Random Thought of the Day

Glad that I had been training with 5 Mile hikes with the backpack, with yoga, with pickleball and a few other routines. Paid off today with a 14-mile hike with few issues.

Enjoying watching Deb interact with the Spanish people / Catalan people.

On the Road / Notable memories

Stopping with Deb at a neighborhood restaurant on the way out of Barcelona, sitting on a street mall with a good lunch.

Finally exiting the industrialized area of Barcelona for the Rio Llobrego riverside.

	Deb and I starting the Camí de Sant Jaumé
	Sagrada familia cathedral. Interesting story. The original cathedral is exceedingly plain and appearance. Much of the exterior was done to compete with The French Gothic cathedrals.
	Like many European cities, the streets of Barcelona are pedestrian friendly and inviting to walk along.
	Plaça d'Espanya
	Rest stop
	Leaving the beautiful parts of Barcelona behind for the more urbanized and commercial and industrial zones.
	Stopping for lunch. About 7 mi into the 14 Mile walk of today.
	The second half of today's walk took us along the banks of the Rio Llobrego.
