Los Arcos, Spain

13 mile day, beautiful weather, wonderful walk through the Spanish countryside.
A word about mileage: we all wear watches that use GPS to track our movement, however we are consistently only within 1/2-3/4 of a mile of each others readings, so you may notice a difference in our posts.
Melanie and I decided to get an earlier than usual start this morning and rose with the sun. It was a beautiful day and the walk started with a slow gradual climb then continued through rolling vinyards and wheatfields. We arrived at 1pm in los arcos, in time for lunch. We have been experiencing difficulties arriving after 2 because everything shuts down for siesta between 2 and 4. Beer and salad and spaghetti.
Tomorrow is a long 17 mile day, hopefully we'll have another day of spectacular weather.
