Castildelgado to Villafranca

Fabulous day walking through rolling hills planted with canola and wheat.

We walked 5kms to breakfast at a Chilean owned Cafe. At last kiwi quality coffee!!! Michelle had three cafe con leches. Breakfast was tortillas fresh from the kitchen, toastadas, French bread sandwiches and coffee. Delicious!

It was an easy walk day of about 22kms. We got to our albergue at the earliest time to date at 1.30pm. We discovered the best "supermacardo" thus far and stocked up on the essestials; beer, potato chips, individual slices of cake (sold in cellophane wrappers), bread, cheese, ham and chocolate. We had a lovely picnic lunch in the shade of the 12th century church.

Dinner was at a pilgrims menu in a lovely restaurant with tablecloths and table service in the restored ancient Pilgrim's hospital.

Brian and Michelle had a late afternoon walk around the village and had a great chat with a lively local walking her two dogs.Leer más
