South America is really big and I have never been there. I am leaving the safety of my teaching job to explore 5 spanish-speaking countries and to walk in the footsteps of Charles Darwin on the Galapagos Islands. I am hoping that neither the perilous altitudes of Ecuador, the ravenous midges in the Peruvian rainforest or the crazy Bolivian bus drivers will kill me... I will doubtless meet other people on the edge of sanity who feel the need to wander away from safety. I hope we can be friends.

There is one other walker at the hostel, a Spaniard called Ernesto. He is taking his time and took 2 days to get here from Puebla. Tomorrow he is also going to A Gudina so it seems I might have company of sorts in the albergues. There are many pictures and statues concerning the Camino and this is just one. By the way Andrew's thermometer gives shade temperature of 36 deg C at 5 today. Sleeping will be hard.

Oh my gosh, cold mornings and hot days, not a great combination. I almost PM'd you on the Forum when you said you were going to leave your gloves behind, I wish I did now. Cold fingers are nasty. Maybe use socks until you can buy some?
