      Lazy Day in Leon...

      September 24, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

      Rest Day - Leon
      Day 23

      Such a cool day just being tourists. 😁
      After an earlyish trip to the laundromat, our days work was done ✔ and we were off to explore!
      First stop the Cathedral! We gave up trying to capture it all in photos, and decided to try and commit it to our memories in the hope that we will never forget it's grandeur. ⛪
      After a breakfast of croissant de chocolate ( our choices were limited...🙄) we explored the old Town, then hopped on a city tourist train which we really enjoyed, and which saved our legs!! Whilst on the train we spotted markets!!! Needless to say a couple of hours were whiled away there!!
      Beaut lunch of some more very tasty tapas,😋
      A couple of cheeky rosè wines in the sunshine 🌞, bliss. Home for a snooze before dinner. 😴

      León II

      September 18, 2017 ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

      Hab bis 10:30 gepennt. Hab dann komplett alle YouTube Videos der letzten 2 Wochen geschaut und bin dann zum Mercadona gegangen um mir Frühstück zu holen. Habe mir Wraps,Salat und Frischkäse gekauft. Das hat dann auch für den ganzen Tag gereicht. Habe mein Zimmer dann bis abends nicht mehr verlassen, und auch da nur um schnell bei Mcces was warmes zu essen. McDonald's in Spanien hat einfach Bier! Und es ist so so günstig ! Ich kann es nicht glauben. Morgen kommt dann endlich meine Family an. Stellvertretend für mich haben sie eine Sonnenblume dabei!😍 Werde schonmal für sie kochen und auf sie warten, denn ich habe schon ein Zimmer für uns 4 reserviert.Read more

      León I

      September 17, 2017 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

      Nachdem meine Family schon früh morgens los ist, habe ich den Bus nach León genommen um mich ein paar Tage auszukurieren. Da dieser aber erst um 17:30 in meinem Kaff ankam, musste ich den ganzen Tag warten und mich langweilen. Habe dabei eine ältere Britin kennengelernt,die auch Fußprobleme hat. Habe ihr dann direkt geholfen ein Busticket zu erstehen und habe ihr einen Platz in meiner Herberge der Vornacht organisiert. What goes around,comes around.
      Angekommen in León habe ich dann nur noch schnell mein Dinner for One in einem kleinen Restaurant gehabt, und mich dann nurnoch in mein Bett fallen lassen.

      Camino Day 5

      April 22, 2018 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

      Left our hotel by 9:30 - 1.5 hour transfer to our starting point of Villares de Orbigo. A not so good start to the day as I lost my phone (found it packed in my suitcase) and then lost the CW guide book for the day's walk!! :-( Today's walk was 9.2 miles or 14K through lowlands around rivers, lowlands with primarily grains growing. Later in the day some really pretty forests (we think beech or birch), conifers, and oak. Bea did not walk again today, she is still pretty swollen in her face and hand. About 4 miles into walk, an "oasis" - gathering of tents, people, and lots of food. All free. Shabi said later that the fellow is a friend and does this due to the fact that he quit drugs on the Camino. People gave him food and this is his payback.

      Went through 2 villages on the way, had our box lunch at San Justo de la Vega. Very busy bar but able to get a Coke Zero On to Astorga - a big City. We walked over a mile once we hit the outskirts of the City Pretty much 30 minutes ahead of time. Did the 9.2 in 4 hours. The meeting place for Bea and Shabi was at a plaza in Astorga where Gaudi built a "house" for a Bishop. There are only 4 Gaudi buildings outside of Catalonia and this was one of them. Had a beer waiting for Shabi, then decided we could visited the Gaudi house interior at 4 which we did. Interesting with beautiful stained glass, vaulted ceilings and lovely columns. Lots of pictures.

      To our hotel for the night in a small village at the Hosteria Camino. Lovely old boutique hotel. We are on the 3rd floor and have a large and small bed and lots of room. Cleaned up, did our E-mail and met Bea and Ibby for dinner.

      Miles: 10.4
