Molinaseca to Villafranca Leaving early! The moon and Venus Out of town Very old building...beautiful flowers. Castille de Templarios (Castle if the Knights Templar) Another view of the castle. This is in Ponferrada, a larger city about 5km from Molinaseca. Selfie! We aren't nearly as "bad" about these as many we see... Hardly a Knight...but it's kinda the thing. Hey...There's a Knight!! Basillica de la Encina in Ponferrada Rising sun shining through the bell tower. Literally towering over the surrounding city! Camino sign in Ponferrada Huge vine espalliered over this building. River overflowing the dam. We followed along it for some time. Peregrina statue leaving Ponferrada And another pilgrim statue Beautiful mountain views as we make our way to Villafranca And more! Awesome way marker! Pilgrim on one side and Christ on the other. Beautiful little church in Fuentes Nueves Incredible painting on the ceiling of the last supper. Modern church with huge nest at the top of the bell tower. Gettin' there! More vineyards Villafranca! Castle as you enter the town Courtyard of the old converted Monastery where we stayed. « ‹ of 2 › » By October 11, 2023
