Day 27 - Leon to Villavente

Such an early start today - up at 5am for a 6am start!! It's probably the 1st and last time we do that! 😬

The walk today was quite blah out of Leon through the burbs. We decided to take the 'scenic' route, which added 2.5kms, but it was worth it to get away from the main highway!

I listened to the very thoughtful playlist that Charley put together for me and started dancing with my sticks! I was definitely in my happy place💜... but then the delirium set in....

Karen & I were talking about something, and both of us at the same time started singing that 10cc song, 'The things we do for love'... so I opened my Spotify app, searched for the song and cranked it up loud. We were bopping all over the road for about an hour, sticks twirling... would have been quite a sight 🤣... but lots of laughs as we walked along the very long, straight bitumen road.

A young guy came up beside us and even had a lil groove too! We had such an interesting chat... he was from Colorado, 22yo & was studying to be a Catholic Priest!!! (For the life of me, I can't recall his name! 🤔)

We arrived with extremely sore feet this arvo at Villavente...no blisters but just really sore! It's a little 'casa rural' with 5 bedrooms... a bit like a bed & breakfast.

We had an amazing communal dinner tonight that the owners prepared for us all. The fireplace was even lit! Such a lovely place to stay and I'm so glad Karen found this lil gem! 🙌

An early night for me tonight! Brekky is served at 7.30am... seriously, this has to be the best place yet! ❤️Read more
