Castrojeriz to Fromista (25.2km)

Today we woke up at 6am after not such a great sleep as there was a fiesta all night in the town including a fireworks display and live bands through until at least 5am!
We set off today and ended up all walking seperatley. I plugged into my ipod and listened to some music to get my feet moving faster. Todays walk was 25km so was not too bad! The views were lovely today as the sun was shining. The walk begun with a steep uphill climb but the views from the top were well worth it. It was the downhill afterwards which was painful for me.
We paused once in an albergue bar and had an ice lolly and then continued along a canal path for the last 5km.
The albergue in Fromista is lovley, sturdy bunks, comfy matress, decent showers and finally Internet!
There is a nice patio where everyone is sat (including a black labrador which belongs to the owners) so its very nice. Hopefully we shall have a good nights sleep!

  1. Hey L! (and hi Jess!)

    Just read through all of your blog posts. Wow, sounds like you are having an amazing time, especially with meeting so many new people and seeing all of the interesting sights!! Maybe the occasional bad weather, sore knees and steep hills aren't so amazing, but I guess that's all just part of the experience :)

    Looking forward to hearing about the rest of your journey - it's a very interesting read indeed!

    Have fun and hope you have a great day.

    Lotsa love, Marie xxxxxx
