    Staying just west of the city center in Trabajo del Camino.
    Have a wonderful room in a hotel with a Buckingham palace worthy balcony overlooking a square. Makes the 14 or so miles worth it. Oh, and did I mention the bathtub?
    Todays walk was in perfect weather. Mas Advil means no mas pain for me, so I was a very comfortable senior citizen today!
    We ran into a friend of ours from Colorado named Monika. We last saw her having her worst day early in our trek. We hadnt seen her since and were worried about her. We were genuinely overjoyed to see her. It truly warmed my heart. She is a proud collector of twenty eight 14 thousand foot peaks as a hiker, so shes badass enough, but to see her today was very special for me and Melanie. The Camino continues to provide many opportunities throughout each day, too many small things to even spell out. Im sure I will remember them later and they will be the source of some great stories.
