Camino Day 18 - Ruitelan

Not a great night for me unfortunately, as I was quite ill with a stomach bug. Not pleasant.
We set off in the morning with a varied route through a tunnel that took us back to the main path.
Today was a steady climb up into the mountains, with beautiful forests and super cute little villages.
We had booked an old favourite albergue of mine from my last trip through here.
The two old guys who run it don't advertise and take people in if you know about it through staying before or word of mouth. They cook a full dinner and breakfast, along with a wake up tune, Ava Maria, which is your clue to go down for breakfast. Very basic facilities but their hospitality is unbeatable.
Was a hard slog today for me with very little energy, and a fever. Went straight to bed when we arrived. A big day tomorrow as we tackle the main mountain, straight up, all day.Read more
