Somewhere between Viana and Logrono there was a roadside stand attended by an older, plump woman who was selling Camino items and stamping passports. [At the end of the Camino I had learned that she was a well known figure along the Way. I bought a blue Camino bandana there, which I think I lost later along the Via Romana.]
Just a few yards down the road there was a little girl perhaps four years old holding a stuffed animal toy by the arm. Walking ahead of me in the same direction, she veered left and sat on the front step of a house. Looking up she saw me with all my gear and offered me the most adorable "Buen Camino" with a cute smile. Nothing mystical or profound, just a blessing from a sweet little angel.
