17k to Calzadilla de la Cueza

The long and not winding road!

We survived the long road to our destination town, a total of 23k. The first 5k out of Carrion we're alongside the road, the worst of the Camino.

Finally the Camino diverged out across the barren wheat fields. Mostly straight as an arrow, with a few trees. There was a food truck out in the middle of nowhere. We stopped and had fresh squeezed orange juice, and some snacks from our packs.

We walked on until we came to a Pilgrim Rest Area/ Picnic stop. We ate our Ham and cheese Bocadillos, which Sue procured from another shop in Carrion.

That left us with about an hour to walk. We reached our destination sometime after 3,PM.

We cleaned up and quenched our thirst with ice cold lemonades! :-)Les mer
