DAY 8: NáJERA TO SANTO DOMINGO DE LA CALZADA (MAY 17)

 Today we journeyed on to Santo Domingo de la Calzada. Here is what we saw:

Crossing the footbridge on our way out of Nájera


We are in the area called La Rioja; famous for its wines. Vineyards stretch out for miles and miles in any direction.

One of the many beautiful churches we encounter along the way. This one is in Azofra.




The long upward climbs are challenging, but we always make it.

Flowers are abundant along the path.

One of my favorite sights are the wheat fields being blown by the wind.
