Today we woke at 6.15 and got ready. Todays walk is a 21.4k walk and was a little more scenic particularly towards the end of the walk. We paused for breakfast at a town 5k in and had an overpriced banana and some banana bread which was good but this on the next leg of the walk played up with my already dodgy stomach so I was behind the crew for the majority of the day.
Then we stopped at Rabanal whichy is supposed to be the final stop for the day however we decided to continue a further 5k up into the mountains to a village called Foncebadon.
The views from here are beautiful and you can see for miles. The albergue we are staying in hadnt enough bunks but they offered us a private room which sleeps four so once again we have our own space which is nice.
For dinner we ate at the albergue in the comunal meal. This is where the albergue volunteers/owners cook the meal for all the pilgrims (for a price of course). We had paella which was really really good and salad. Also little platters of cheese and chorizo were put on the tables. Then we had ice cream for dessert. It was delicious and kind to my stomach so that was good. Was good to finally have some real spanish food for once!
Now off to bed as theyre planning a early 5am wake up.
