Santibáñez to Santa Catalina

Our albergue last night was one of the best so far. The owner couldn’t have been nicer.

I shared a taxi with Nicole to Astorga to rest my foot a bit with a shorter day. As we turned the corner into the town, there was Lesley again! We all had a second breakfast and Nicole very kindly restrapped my ankle in a more supportive way.

Lesley and I visited the Palacio de Gaudi - I don’t think there is anything Gaudi left for me to do now.

My foot went well with the new strapping but I will see how the next few days go when we get to rockier paths, I will probably need to adjust my plans a bit.

I walked in to my albergue a few towns on which is my first donativo and it is very different to anywhere else I’ve stayed. It was very bohemian looking and the dormitory was a bit rough. But the communal dinner was great and then a few guests and the host picked up the instruments and we had music and singing. A unique experience!
