An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.
Henry David Thoreau
Walking the Camino, The Way of St. James, to Santiago de Compostella, we were awake, and walking early in the morning, and each day saw camino art, wonderful expressions of creativity, some of it related to the camino experience some of it related to other subjects.
Located in Burguete Spain, a little town made famous as Hemingway’s trout-fishing base in the The Sun Also Rises. I wondered if the mural was a tribute to the writer.

Wow Janice! This is a great photo… it really catches the spirit of Europe, especially Spain! I just love it
Thanks Stewart, the mural is stunning. getting his feet just at the top of the shrub meant changing the angle of view just a little! On the camino we met so many Basque gentleman walking dressed just like this!
I am not sure how this got to my message box…but I agree and love it too! How I wish I could make this trip!
Hi Walkuforia, thanks for visiting, and taking time to comment. I am glad you love the image, and you would love the camino, it was a wonderful experience. I hope you will visit again.
Amazing photo!
