NARRATIVE: The big bump 3km out of Puente la Reina was exactly as I remembered it. Although it's only around 1 km, it kicked the snot out if me. I can't figure out why it doesn't show on any map.
Tons of people got burned today, including the worse sunburn I've had since I was a teen on my left shoulder. The one spot I missed putting sunscreen on. I sent my pack, so I just didn't notice anything on my shoulder.
Tere keeps having foot troubles. A new one everyday. Hopefully, we'll be able to get it all worked out over the next week and be done with it.
We boiled some eggs in Puente la Reina which made for a perfect snack, along with some fruit.
We originally thought we'd stay at the Monesterio San Benito, and had the pack sent there. When we arrived, it seemed abandoned so I panicked a little over the pack, but someone finally opened up and our pack was there. It was pricey and I think we would have been the only ones there so we left and ended up at the donativo. 18 per room x2 rooms, 2 showers and 4 toilets. Just like camp.
