Puebla de Sanabria

Brooks rented a car and drove us up here, where we start our walk from tomorrow morning. I am surprised at how hot it is - this part of Spain is often cold and rainy.

It is a beautiful little village with narrow streets between stone buildings, a castle on top of the hill, and a lake down below. Lots of Spanish tourists here now. I had booked a room for us ahead of time in a small hotel and a sign on the door said it opened for check-in at 3, but was still locked up tight after that. So I called the number on the door and the lady gave me the code to get in, our room number and said the key would be in the room door. It was, and it appears we are the only guests staying here. So we have the run of the place including the cafe which doesnt open until breakfast tomorrow. Booze in there and everything, so strange (will add more town pics soon)Lue lisää
