Day 10. Los Arcos to Viana

March 22 - - 21.4 Kms - 13.4 Miles. Los Arcos to Viana. Our stay in the Casa Abuela was great. Pilgrim meal - our first on this Camino was a great way to spend some time with pilgrims we had seen over the last few days. Only one bar was open in the evening and only one (Bar Buen Camino) that we saw in the morning for a bit of breakfast before our start to Viana. We left Los Arcos in the rain and it pretty much stuck around our entire walk. No bars were open in Sansol. One bar/ Albergue was open in Torres del Rio - where 6 of our pilgrims spent the night. I realize it has been 12 years since we walked this way but we had no recollection of how difficult this stage was on the knees. I think in Wise Pilgrim’s app it’s called the”knee breaker”. In 2010 a couple of young Spaniards urged us to continue to Logrono which we did. Not this trip😁. Spending the night here in Viana at the San Pedro Pension. Clean but very small rooms. When we arrived we tried to get a room at the hostel Casa Armandariz. When we entered the establishment the lady at the bar ignored me for about 5 minutes before asking what I wanted. When I asked for a room she said no rooms you have to go elsewhere. It definitely wasn’t an issue that they were completo as there were hardly any pilgrims. Anyway their loss of 50 euros. Tomorrow we walk a short walk to Logrono where we will take a day or two off so we can get Palma’s wrist attended to.Leia mais
