• Day 11 - Navarette to Azofra

    Jun 1–2, 2024 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    The walk today was 23kms and a very pleasant meander through vineyards and farmland. 1hr in, I had a delish anti-inflammatory smoothie and a good cuddle with a border-collie called 'Win' 🐾💙

    We went through a village called Najera and some fellow Aussies insisted we visit a very unique National monument called Monasterio de Santa Maria la Real, where the mausoleums for Kings and Infants way back from the 10th century are located! This place was incredible. The history here was just awe-inspiring!

    Then onwards, 6kms to Azofra, where upon entering the village, the cutest scene played out in front of us.... (see video 🐾)

    There were only 2 restaurants here and a pretty limited selection. The 1st we looked at had yummy pizzas pictured on the menu, but when the owner proceeded towards the freezer to pull them out, we opted for the other restaurants' paella instead 🥘.... but I think this was also a microwave meal! 🤔

    Accommodation tonight is clean and nice, so off to sleep in broad daylight - at 9 pm - I go! 😴
