• Day 16. Granon to Ages

    31. maj 2024, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 46 °F

    We walked over 14 miles yesterday and our Alburgue was a mile off the trail. It did not have WiFi, so was unable to post til the morning.
    Alburgue Neustra Senora Carresqueda was huge and we were the only guests there. The temperatures dropped during the day but fortunately we had blankets. A very nice green salad with tuna over the top was my dinner. Steve got the same with Cordon Bleu and French fries. The host showed us around and we saw an old alter in the basement that had been part of the town of Granon for centuries.
    In the middle of the night, Steve woke with a throbbing great toe. It was red and swollen. He had Keflex and took it. We discussed taking taxi to medical facility. By the time we were ready to leave, he thought he was better. So after just over 14 miles we reach the clinic and the doctor through google translate made it very clear that it would not heal unless he stopped walking. Dr Diana was very good. We then took a taxi to Ages and will make our way to Burgos tomorrow and rest for 5 days.
    Ages is nice. I am in a room with 5 men, bunk bed, creaking door and I know they snore from the time they took a nap. Fun times tonight!!!
    I’m grateful for continued treatment for Steve, grateful for the respite in Burgos and grateful for the taxi.
