SHORT day today, 12km. Started the accent to Alto de Perdon and my back started aching, the more I climbed, the more it ached. Entered into this little hamlet and filled my water at the spigot. Decided to enter the little church and spent a while admiring the place.
When I left, my friend Camino Ray was just arriving and was checking out his blisters.
I walked ahead a bit and immediately found this little bar/albergue. Went in and he had beds for €10. My back was aching so much, that barring bedbugs or some similar horrible situation, I was staying. Turns out it's a new albergue and clean. Spent some extra time chatting with family and just enjoyed a less hectic day. The pilgrim menu was good and satisfying. The company of people is really great here.

I am sorry to hear that your back was aching. I am glad that you decided to have a less hectic day and thoroughly enjoyed the extra chatting we did:) Get some rest and I can't wait to chat with you tomorrow. Love you, sweetie.
ReplyDeleteGreat way to take care of yourself buddy. That place wasn't there in 2012. Just shows how great the Camino is for the local economy. And a shout out to Tina for supporting you each and every step of Your Way. Buen Camino, Ross & Kathleen
