Big Five Oh Trip

And now in Puertollano. Nice view if a mountain (or big rock?) from my hotel window. Walked into town to get some food. Nowhere was opening till 9. Wonder if they forgot the clocks went forward.

I went to a very nice little bar/restaurant which I had looked up earlier and decided om because they had a vegetarian section to their menu. Though actually it was mostly different versions of the same thing (mushrooms, spinach, onion and goats cheese on a pizza, in a burrito, in a quesadilla....). I really should have gone for the quesadilla! Way too much pizza for me. I ate half of it and that was a bit too much. It was nice. The dough was weird (so far, I am pretty sure I have not had good pizza dough in Spain) and also heavier than normal pizza dough (which isn't exactly light). But it was healthier than the crisps and spongey little cake things that kept me going the rest of the day.

I was considering asking for a second beer and sewing if I could eat some more, but think it was definitely the right call.to get up and pay instead. Oh, except they didn't take cards at all and I was down to a few coins. So I had to go round the corner to an ATM and get some cash out to pay. Yeesh.itbwas a lovely bar, though. Played good music. The sort of place I'd enjoy hanging out in with other people.

Going to be asleep pretty soon, I think. And going to get up earlyish to get some work done before the train. My ideal is to be all done before the train and then I can probably fit in some Barcelona exploration in the afternoon. But we'll see.

This is a weird kind of limbo place. I like the overnights where I get there in the afternoon and have some good wandering time. I do like their green walls though.

OK. ¡Hasta mañana!En savoir plus
