Cirauqui, Lorca and Villatuerta

We have arrived in our destination for tonight, Villateurta, about 18km of walking. We passed through two more hilltop villages. The descent from Cirauqui was on an ancient Roman road and bridge over the stream in the valley.

Before Lorca we walked under a canal, see photos.

We walked with a very nice woman, Annabelle, from Majorca. There is a picture of her on a bridge with Sue. It was nice to be with her when Lorca sounded an emergency horn, followed by a PA announcement in Spanish. We asked if we need to take shelter! She laughed and said, "No they are just telling the town that the new Covid vaccines are available tomorrow". Whew!!!!

Our albegue tonight is beautiful, newly renovated building in yet another hilltown, just opened last summer. Sue and I are relaxing in the common room with a bottle of vino Tonto and some snacks, while our laundry is in the washer.Read more
