Carrion Churches

JL has suggested that I write about why people such as myself (without any religious motivation) keep returning again and again to the Camino. Not easy to explain unless you’ve been here and done it. For my part, I like feeling the sense of history all around me (in Australia we are a bit deprived of this). Also, I know that I can walk this path without ever getting lost; there are so many pilgrims doing it and it is so well marked (a bonus for me being slightly geographically challenged!)


This morning, I left San Zoilo with the intention of visiting two of the Carrion churches before catching the bus to Terradillos. The bus would transport me 17km of bring Camino with no services. I went first to the church of Santiago (not open till later) and then to Santa Maria. The latter commemorates the legend? that each year the Christians were obliged to hand over 100 virgins to the conquering Moors. How could they keep finding 100 year after year?
