Pilgrims on the Way

Camino Photo of the Day: Always Try the Local

We checked into our gîte by phone. We never even saw the landlord. After the usual pilgrim ablutions, we headed out to see if we could find someplace for dinner. The options in the village were limited, so we ended up going to a local burger-and-pizza joint. I had a pretty tasty burger, although I found it interesting that all the burgers there came with mozzarella. And of course, I tried the local beer, which I found surprisingly refreshing and tasty. Always try the local. You might be surprised.

Maps!

The site I’ve been using for my daily maps, Gronze.com, while otherwise great, unfortunately doesn’t have maps for this variant. So here’s a map from my book Practical Pilgrimage showing the entirety of the three main variants and larger sub-variants. I walked the GR6 from Figeac to Rocamadour and the GR46 on to Cahors.
