The pebble

A high point, in more ways than one on the Camino is to place a stone taken from home and place at Cruz de Ferrol, as I understand it, the size of the stone relates to the size of my sins, but that would have put my baggage allowance well over at the airport, so instead I took a small pebble to relate the size of my innocence. I am informed that you can also place all you worries into that stone, throw it over your shoulder to cast all your worries away.  I had to contend with another the mountain today, this brought back the physical pain I have had on this pilgrimage, but I am now in the Albergue in Ponferrada had my shower and on my daily hunt for food. Life is good.
