• Today in Logrono

    May 31, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    After my walk this morning into the afternoon, the heat was stifling so back to hostel to prepare dinner. Slept all late afternoon, and felt a bit let down that the day was almost gone.

    But that's recovery for you in Logrono. A lot of pilgrims feel the heat and wish they had started out earlier in the day.

    I met lovely Zoe from California who shared her electrolyte tablets with me as I arrived yesterday. Today she turned in when I was talking to Donna from over the ditch to help out with a query, my sim card won't let me call businesses...and I have to go to a separate website to buy minutes then go to the original seller of the sim to top up! So annoying. Same issue that you had oor Annie, I think. How does the sim know that I'm calling a business?

    I wanted to post a few more photos from today's walkabout before I settle in for the night wishing everyone God speed with love 💕

    The photos are of my bunk room before I left this morning. Six bunks with lovely white starched sheets pillowcases, lovely white bath towels and curtains across our bunks! Luxury!

    Then a long walk down a "Calle" street which doesn't allow cars toward the cathedral. After the cathedral, I stopped at the tourist office which has the statues of pilgrims in front of it. Behind this was the medieval tower. That was quite eerie and depicted a video on the wall of its history.

    Then it was on to the "Museo o de la Rioja" which has an amazing palace as it's home.
