NARRATIVE: A first... I remembered my poles after 35O meters and had to return to the albergue. The rest of the walk was uneventful. Ran into Nuri and her family. Took the more scenic variant after Hospital de Orbigo. A couple of kms before San Justo, there was an oasis - a donativo stand that was amazing. I had 3 slices of delicious watermelon and some watermelon juice, then apricot nector.
I got to Astorga just after 13:00, met up with Tere, took a break and then headed out for another 4 km together to a vegetarian albergue. The accommodations were so so, but the dinner was great. Soup, lasagne, salad, and an apple/cherry/ chocolate desert. I think the shower was the worst so far. Luke warm water in a tiny stall. Around 24 people in our room, but no serious snorers!
