In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue. That is also the same century the lower section of this house was built. Part of the home has been turned into a Gite to give back to pilgrims. Another part of the house has been turned into a potter’s workshop with class space for children. The lowest level was once used as stables and has been converted into a kitchen with a curved brick ceiling including skylights. Yes, those are my clothes hanging on the balcony. Cleaning mud from walking clothes is a high priority these days.
Looks like a grand place to bunk!! Remember one foot in front of the other over and over again and presto you are there!!

Today didn’t seem like a presto today as it was 8 km along a former rail line. The iPod helped put bounce in my step. Seldom can I listen music as attention is needed to navigate. But yes, the end will seem too soon. Didn’t Robinson’s Bay come all too soon? Linda
