We walked thru a still very much asleep city until we got to the bus/taxi area, it was very full of people who had just finished a night of partying and we're taking taxis back home. I said before the Spanish love to party and I'll say it again - THEY LOVE TO PARTY!!!
So we got to Virgin del Camino and started down the alternate route... You know, the BEAUTIFUL your, not straight and thru an industrial/commercial slog?... I mean, well, the last 14km are almost perfectly straight but at least they are thru fields and have canals and the like vs car dealerships, manufacturing commercial, etc... Yeah, NO PILGRIMS!!!! Where did they all go? Did they stay in LEON, go home, do the road route, ??? Don't know but only a handful of pilgrims - NICE - Seriously, our first not sold out albergue this trip.
Our town is pretty small with a boring water tower unlike the one in the picture above
So yeah, very uneventful day, lots of walking alone along the scenic route.
