Villavante

We started our day hoping to find a cafe open and as always the Caminó provides. We met Manuel he had a little stand on the side of the road as we left the area of León. It was a donation basis we had coffee, juice and muffins just what we needed. We knew we had a good mileage day ahead and thankfully we found an actual cafe around mile eight for a meal around 10:30am. Once we left there it was an endless nine miles until we reached our Albergue Santa Lucía for the night.
Javier and I entertained each other singing and getting our groove on for the last five miles.
We checked in and gathered with Jim and Melanie for our tradition of cold beer and whatever snacks we have. Today was day nine of walking and we’re all looking forward to our rest day once we reach Astorga mañana.
Tonight we’ll partake in a pilgrims meal and get a good nights rest after today’s 17 miles. KatRead more
