Off just before 6, me in a shirt, Susan in a light fleece. Contrary to the forecast it was actually quite fresh and with a few dark clouds looming! However apart from a very light shower we were fine. We were pleased to get a coffee at a ‘seasonal’ caravan about 5 miles in and then a juice stop at a cafe about the 12 mile point. Spoke to a nice Californian who tells us he is hiking Europe all summer. He was obviously very fit and after Susan and I left I said he was a double for Lance Armstrong and I was annoyed I never asked him if he was. Anyway my curiosity was sated when we met later and he said I wasn’t the first person to say that, and no he definitely wasn’t LA.
We had a bit of a flap at our Hostal when the young lad couldn’t find our reservation but his older sister appeared later and sorted it out. All of which gave me time for a couple of wee beers😀.
Had a relaxing afternoon before finding a wee local before dinner. Ledigos is a tiny hamlet but a local family have set up a small brewery and the end result is very palatable. (Vereda)
It started to rain when we left and we managed to lose each other on the way back to the Hostal – quite an achievement even by our standards of navigation.
Anyway we met again in the bar and went into dinner with Norbert, a lovely Belgium man who was also married in 1983, and a couple from London, Rachel and Heath.
We had the usual chat as to future plans and we said we were thinking about doing the Camino Norte? Norbert asked why and I said it was because we heard there were normally no Belgiums on that route. Fortunately he liked my wee joke😀.
Nightcap in the bar (Aberdonian measures!) and early night.

Thought the Californian was “after Susan” 😂😂
