The Legend of Castro

Things I saw each day, running from Castro to Marittima (and back)
Day 1: Dog, snake, dog cat dog
Day 2: Dog, dog, snake dog dog
Day 3: Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheepdog
Day 4: The car that nearly hit me
Day 5: Flies, more flies, dead badger
Day 6: Dog, dog, flies, dead badger still there, flies, sheep, sheepdog in the distance
Day 7: The car
