Stayed last at what Laura considers the best yet. They washed and dried all our clothes for 6 Euros and delivered to our front door, good because I had only a clean pair of socks to wear. They also have a portable heater, miniature bar of soap, small packet of champu and towels-none of which I have in my backpack. Last night's dinner was rabbit stew. I know, it looks and taste like chicken but I had fun analyzing the difference in their bone anatomy.
Started this morning a bit later intentionally. We did not need headlamps, and what a revelation. We had the roads to ourselves. A crispy cold morning with majestic views among vibrant bird songs.
We stopped at the first town for coffee and croissants and I commented to Laura how nice the morning was and that we really shouldn't be rushing. It was vacation after all.
She agreed. So here we are, in the third town at a very casual 9:30 having second breakfast and writing this blog. I ask if they can make me spaghetti as we have to climb up to O Cebreiro and she came up with this. I know it looks like it can feed four, which it can....or one Wig, which it did.
I have trip favorites as far as food is concerned. Our first Camino involved flan, I had 38 of those. Second Camino involved daily chocolate croissants. This Camino' s first two weeks was chicharron or pork rinds and then the urges stopped. Perhaps I am attaining the 4th and last pinnacle of a good life-first in the picture. Laura says no way.
Now we climb. Maybe after another breakfast or is it lunch time already.
