    1Church in Castrojeriz
    Beautiful morning sky as we were leaving Castrojeriz1st km or two were nice and level headed out of town, it was not to last...We had to look behind us to catch the beautiful sunriseAt this point, we had started up a very long hill, no end in sight for 2 to 3 kmFrom the top of the hill, we can see the windmills on the horizon1On the top, looking back, the sign says it's a 12% grade1We stayed up top for a short time, then hit an 18% grade headed down!Fortunately, the road was made from striated concrete, so it was not slippery, only hard on kneesSo this is the meseta, you can see very far in front most of the time!Itero de Castillo, a small, cute old village with remnants of a very old castle... and a church to the left. There was also a Bar and an albergue in town.Entering Boadilla del Camino, and even smaller village, where we are spending the nightOur friend Guy passed us again today and took this picture, I was bent over fighting the wind
