ACCOMMODATION: Municipal
PRICE: € 5
NARRATIVE: The day from hell. Or at least the stage end city from hell. Definitely the worst day.
1. The walk was longer by several kms than all the maps. Plus, it was boring.
2. We walked so long that my watch stopped at least 20 minutes out, so totals are guesses.
3. The vegetarian albergue I sent my pack to (Ada) is closed on Mondays so they dropped it off at the municipal. We had several Korean men in our room that smelled like kimchi and snored.
4. My shower was luke warm and the guy in the stall next to mine kept moaning. Gross!
5. The cafe were we ate gave us marginal food (frozen lasagne and paella) and overcharged us, according to everyone else's prices.
6. There were no yellow arrows guiding us out of town in the a.m.
And now for the bright spots... We shipped the pack so we didn't have to deal with the weight. Also, there was a donativo masseur at the albergue. Ahhhh!
