Torres del Rio, Day 12

Torres del Rio, Day 12

This morning was rough. Beginning our walk, my legs felt as they had at the beginning of day three. We walked along a gorgeous gravel path, tired and sore from the day before. We walked 8 kilometers to Los Arcos and stopped for coffee. We ran into someone we had met a few nights before, in Cizur Menor, and drank our coffee together and talked about the horrible hills and beautiful landscapes we have seen in the past couple of days.

We all decided to walk to Torres Del Rio, where Paisley and I are staying tonight. We had great conversation about our futures, learning languages, work-life balance, and the third industrial revolution. The time to our albergue flew by, and we made it half an hour before check in, at about 11:30 am.

We checked in, changed, washed our clothes, and grabbed lunch. We had ham and cheese sandwiches and have been working on the blog.

Dinner is at 7 pm, and there is a pool here, so we will probably take a break and go swim in a bit.

Tomorrow we are planning 33 km to Navarette, so rest will be important.
