Two weeks on the Way - Villalcazar de Sirga

The walk started today along a canal. It then continued, and continued on a gravel path alongside the paved road.

The town I am in has an interesting church. It is a fortress style church built by the Knights Templar in the 12th Century. There is a painting here of a pregnant Virgin Mary. This was apparently a common way to depict her in medieval times but is not the practice since that time.

I've attached a few pictures to give you the sense of the day. Not the most inspiring walking day but I am closer to Santiago de Compostela.
