I guess you’ll get to Burgos today, the municipal Alberge there is very modern and very good. Enjoy the gothic architecture there it’s truly impressive. Safe travels and it looks like you set fire for quite a few days good weather.

A 30 km walk today. A well-earned beer was waiting for us! Some beautiful wide vistas in the meseta.
TravelerBeer and carrot cake fine, it's just the 18 miles I'd be stuck for, how are your feet, you haven't complained yet?!@ xJean
TravelerHey Aunty Karen. Loving the pictures and following your journey. I did have to google albergue. I guessed it was where you were staying but wondered if it was related to the camino only. Anyway the top hit was the purple palace in Wrexham! I don’t think there is a spa there though. Hope your feet don’t get any worse xxx

Love the Pictures Karen, I stayed at the same place (3 times now) ‘Espirtu Santo’, loved it. You will pass the halfway point this morning, well done, you seem to be skipping along effortlessly. If you make it to Terrafillos de los Templarios today try and stay at the Albergue ‘Jacques de Molay’, it was one of my favourites. Happy travels for the second half of the trip.
