A short day, a slow day.

We started the day with a wonderful breakfast at Pension Casa Wasala.. Paul asked us last night if we like eggs for breakfast. Yes of course! The only eggs we have seen have been hardboiled. Today, scrambled eggs, thinly sliced Spanish ham, bread, jam and yogurt with fruit. And a big carafe of hot coffee and cream! Heaven!

Then we set off at a leisurely pace, under overcast skies and cooler temperatures. Today would have been a good day for a 20+ kilometer walk, like the last two days. But only 12 kilometers planned for today.

We passed through 3 little villages today, mostly closed for business. The second Villambistia had an open cafe. While walking Bengt and Inga caught up with us, and we all stopped for coffee and snacks. They hare are done walking in Burgos this Fall, and going home to Sweden in a couple of days. And since they are walking to the next town, we will not see them again. So we said goodbye when they set off. (We hope to see you again in our travels,)

We continued our slow walk an arrived at our Hotel in Villafranca Montes de Oca just as the sun was coming out!
