Camino de Santiago (Frances)

Had a very pleasant walk today, started to a beautiful sunrise in Villafranca before we left. The walk was a 7.5 mile to start, we went 8.5 before stopping for a cafe Co leche and a cerveza (OK maybe two). We then made our way to our stopping point for the day, total of 12 miles today. One more day to Burgos, and a day off, yeah.

We must have our Camino legs now because today's 12 miles went by really fast. After our breakfast buffet this morning, we headed out just before sunrise. We started with about a two mile ascent which then leveled off for most of the day. The ladscape was beautiful.

There are about eight of us walking the same distances so it's been nice passing each other and then meeting in town again.

We stopped for coffee in San Juan de Ortega before heading to Agés. We were hoping to have lunch in Agés but the burger place we'd heard about wasn't open yet so we kept going to our final destination of Atapuerca.

Our host told us about a fine dining restaurant (Comosapiens) that is only open until 3:30pm during the week so we went there and had a very nice three-course lunch.

The exciting news of the day is that our place has a washing machine! We washed every stitch of clothing we have (both sets, haha) and luckily it's sunny and windy so everything has dried quickly.

Tomorrow we walk to Burgos and then we'll have a rest day.Leia mais
