Los Arcos

This town is small but cute. I enjoyed an excellent lunch with friends and a bit of good wine in the plaza in front of the beautiful church.

The walk was long and we transitioned from predominantly wheat fields into more vineyards but also oak forest, poplars, and some trees I do not know.

The terrain has been undulating foothills whereas before it was more markedly mountainous.

After yesterday's experience in Villatuerta I felt more of a need to be social vs. introspective and spent the majority of the walk chatting with other pilgrims, pleasantly.

I walked faster than I needed to, and got more tired because of it.

A friend discovered a delightful pensión called Pensión Ostadar. The owner, Esteban, offered me a good deal because I am a pal of hers.. which is fun. I enjoyed chatting with him and having a private room w a balcony is a treat. Still affordable at less than 50€... I don't know his normal rate so I won't share the actual price I paid. It was worth a lot more than I paid.Weiterlesen
