NARRATIVE: A long day, but at least it wasn't hot. In fact, the last hour of walking had a nice breeze and cloud cover. A welcome relief to the dreaded 17 km stretch. At Carrion de los Condes, we ran into our Mexican friends. They stopped for breakfast while we continued on. They later caught up with us as we approached the 9km or so food stop. We walked with them into the town and got a four bed room together.
The whole time I was walking, I kept thinking "I'm so glad we filled up last night because I'm hungry now and I don't think I could have made it. We both were beat by the time we arrived and it wasn't even our hardest day.
Dinner was marginal, at best. Can't recommend this place. The room are nie, but expensive, especially when you consider that there is only one bathroom for 4 rooms - at least 14 people.
