• Villatuerta

    April 17 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 77 °F

    Today was sunny and hot again as we walked to Villatuerta, a smaller town just this side of Estrella. We wanted to cut down on distance today because 20+ km is just painful. I’m at an age where I don’t feel I have anything to prove, so the next few days will be off-stage at lower distances than the standard 22-26 km per day. My voice is returning and I’m feeling better, but I’m still quite tired. A few shorter days will be very welcome!
    I had some great conversations today. Now I’m spent, sitting beside the river next to the Roman bridge that leads over to our small, quaint albergue. There are only eight beds in one large room. We will prepare our own dinner in the kitchen.
    Tomorrow is thankfully short, just 13 km to the town of Villamayor de Monjardín.
