What we had seen of the Meseta up till now has not been as flat as I expected; not nearly as flat as the Texas panhandle. The slight roll to the farmland is pleasing to the eye.
We soon came to a canal that provides a shuttle service, pre-COVID.
The church in Frómista dates back to 1079.
Leaving Frómista the city has erected a sculpture commemorating the pilgrims.
Going forward we saw more interesting sights.
As we got closer the Knights Templar Church became more impressive.
The view from our lodging was even more spectacular.
I do not normally take pictures in churches, but I made an exception.
Leaving out early today provided some beautiful skies again.
The first town of Carrion de Los Condes was much prettier than I was expecting.
Upon leaving there was a sign that I think sums up the Camino best.
Once having left Carrion, it was at least ten miles to our resting place of Calzadilla de la Cueza. No services in between and for most of the walk no other pilgrims.
The path eventually deviated from the road and it was still deserted for another few miles.
About three miles a nice young lady from Germany who had been resting alongside the road joined in for another mile until we split at lunch. We were soon at the Hostel for the evening after what had been one of the most contemplative walks so far.

that Templar cathedral looks so cool!

Your pictures are very mindful. My wife and I are waging battle to see who can say “I love you” more quickly (and of course meaningfully) in the morning. I usually awake before her so I tell her while she is sleeping.
