Puenta la Reina to Villatuerta

Leaving Puenta la Reina we ran into people we met on the train and thought they would be 1 or 2 days ahead of us.

We decided on a shorter day than we had planned -  11 ish miles instead of 14 ish miles. Glad we did, the Albergue Casa Magica is very nice, 12 euros each and pilgrims dinner is 13 euros- paid cash!

Our day:

Our 40 roommates started getting up around 5:00, we got up around 5:30, packed up, ate a peach and were on the camino around 7:15.

Pilgrim statute right by our albergue


Puenta la Reina, the Queen's Bridge, from 1090 AD on the way out of town



Grapes looked like they would be good, we didn't try bit we have been eating blackberries along the way.


Stopped for an apple around 10:30 holding out for a cafe/bar to get breakfast and my cafe con leche


Another warm day so I decided to zip off pant legs!

Back on the Way



Just a Roman wall! Actually very cool thing to see.

At last 12:30 - java, tea and frittatas, we ordered another frittata to share - we were hungry 

We get stamps whenever we can, we are going to fill our first credencial will have to buy a second one later on


Our Albergue ala Casa Magica




All set for tomorrow morning

Buen Camino
