Today our 14 mile walk took us through Villante, and Puente de Orbigo, as we followed the longer ‘ walkers route’ into Santibanez de Valdeiglesias.
We crossed a long old bridge in Puente de Orbigo. They had a billboard on the bridge showing pictures from an annual medieval celebration the town does on the bridge and surrounding parkland.
Just before we entered Santibanez, we walked by an unusual ‘vineyard/orchard’. From a distance it even looked like poplar trees. We walked a little out of our way to see exactly what it was. It was hops! Getting thirsty for a cervesa.
Our village tonight is very small. Our Albergue has the only food in town. Needless to say our dinner choices were very limited- and they even ran out of red wine before dinner.
We went for sandwiches and a vino blanco and cervesa.
Remember you are not alone out there. Our prayers go with you. Enjoy and continue to be strong and safe.
