ホスピタリオは全員とても優しいので、

もっと人が来て欲しいなあ。。。

アルベルゲの周辺は大きいスーパーが二つもあって大変良いです。

Day 29

3 May

From Fonfria to Sarria

We were just 2 people to stay in the dormitory.

So there was 16? Beds room, but it was a private room!

Sarria has a big supermarket, unluckily our albergue doesn't have a kitchen. So we gave up to buy some invited foods! 

Sarria is a expensive city,  average cost of albergue is between €8 and 10.

When I found a price of breakfast, I was so surprised. It was €5! Who wants to spend €5 for pilgrims' breakfast at the cafe! 

But if I walk 100km, I would order it.

Our albergue was clean, tidy and new.

But I prefer furnished with kitchen.

So I don't choose it again.

Day 30

4 May

From Sarria to Gonzar

32.5km

Chatty noisy Italian and Spanish groups made us really annoy.

It was the worst night as nightmare.

I allowed if someone snooze loudly, but I hate pirgrims speak loudly in a bed room at night. Surprisingly, one of the Italian guy shouted a lot, play music, walk around and speak really loudly!!!!

Unfortunately, just a few pilgrims think Camino is like a school trip for adult! 

I have to careful and to be sensible to choose albergue to over every night calmly.... 

Day 31

5 May

From Gonzar to Melide

32.5km

We walked a lot, the distance was 32.5km!

We'd been annoying since last night, so we were ...energetic.

When I got to a municipal albergue at Melide, I wasn't so tired when I thought.

But I noticed my feet was worse because of blisters.

I'd already quit to use cream, baby powder and massage on my feet.

Actually it was a bad decision, so I restarted it.

I hope I success to reduce the blisters. 

By the way, I found good shop there.

One of a wine shop "Rebeirao" which near the municipal albergue was lovely!

I bought some products of skin care.

And "XEBRE" looks good. They sell some ice creams and cheese.

But I didn't try it.

My Korean friend recommended to eat octopus there.

I recommend to eat breakfast at "cafe stop" which is near the albergue.

You can have チュロス, cafe con lech, biscuit and shot glass of orange juice for just €1.5! 

It was amazing price! Of course, you can use wifi there!

Day 32

6 May

From Melide to Santa Irene

30.4km

It was looooong way, the distance was 30.4km.

Actually, it was shorter than yesterday, but my feet was not good, so I felt tired.

We stopped at Santa Irene.

There is no supermarket and tienda. Just a cafe-bar. So they can't prepare pilgrim menu, soup and pasta etc.

Municipal albergue has a kitchen as Melide, but both are no pan, knife, cup and plate. So if you carry it you can cook.

That's why my guide book said no kitchen there.

Municipal was ok. 

Someone wanted open a window at night, I didn't complain to her. I didn't want to argue with someone anymore. But If you are feeling hot, why don't you get out from your sleeping bag??? 

Anyway, I saw a lovely dog walk with owner.

His name is "Lobo", he's so cute and fluffy...! I wanted follow his tale till Santiago...

From Astorga to Rabanal del Camino

20km

Very windy day...!  We stopped at Rabanal del Camino.

We tried pilgrim menu again. hospitario recommend the restaurant.

I really wanted to try Natillas again, it was already gone!

Actually it was so-so. Beef was ok, but macaroni was rubbish.

I ordered wine three times at the dinner.

Normally pilgrims' menu includes red wine.

I ordered just poco vino tinto, but he brought jug of the wine again and restaurant charged it!

I think one bottle per person at pilgrims' menu. 

If you want to drink more, you should ask it'll be charged or not...

Anyway, I like municipal albergue which I stayed.

It has lovely old heater between the bed.

It was so sweet!

There is many tiendas. Lovely small village, it's good for stay.

昨日は薬を飲んでストレッチして就寝。咳と鼻水はでるけど、歩けるくらいには復活！！

そんな朝は嬉しいチュロス朝食！

宿の近くのカフェで1.5ユーロのステキ朝食セット。

チュロス4本とガレット3枚、グランデコーヒーとショットのしぼりたてオレンジ。

これで1.5！！！

美味しいし嬉しい～！

時にはコーヒーだけでも1.5するので、大満足な朝食でした。

きょうも30km頑張るぞ！！

From Mansilla de las Mulas to Astorga 

Day of 21st,

Finally, we got to Leon!

Actually I expected too much there.

I was bit disappointed. If I have to chose one city from Burgos, Leon and Astruga, I'll choose Burgos.

Anyway, it's a good city.

We found low price snack bar "TRIBECA".

We didn't know the price, surprisingly, you don't need to pay for a food. It's free!

Actually the food was not so special, but price is amazing!

Restaurants ate almost open at 8pm, so it's bit late for pirgrims...

Municipal albergue of Leon was ok,

Donative breakfast was busy and cheap...

Day of 22nd,

Almost pirgrims didn't stay at an albergue which I stayed that day.

Normally they walk 30km per day, so they don't stop there.

I cannot recommend you to stay there.

There was absolutely UNTIDY!!!

They don't clean up every day, there is not your house!!

Do not stay at municipal albergue Villadangos del Paramo, please.

Hospitario? was nice and helpful, albergue is not dirty...

He is just untidy...

Day of 23rd,

I felt tired. The way to get to Astorga was boring... Where is the end of the flat world!?

Landscapes were absolutely lovely, but I don't like to walk it!

Sunday is not convenient day. Supermarket and church, museum are closed.

But if you miss to buy a chocolate and famous pastry of Astorga, please do not regret about it.

Taste is absolutely average and normal.

We saw a gentle man of Britain at Astorga!

I guess his hobby is guiding in Astorga for pirgrims.

So, He guided around of the city for us. It was more than two hours ...

He is a bit abnormal but really kind and knowledgeable, it was absolutely interesting!

Honestly, we were exhausted after that, we hadn't eaten a dinner although went to bed earlier.

坂！

安い！飲みやすい！

前菜、メイン、デザートの3コースで、

それぞれ3～5数種類から選べます。

ワイン、パン、水付きで

€8～€10が普通です

でもこれ、

残念ながら

どこでもほぼ同じメニュー

そしてあんまりおいしくない。。。

でも町にスーパーマーケットやキッチンがない場合は、

仕方なく食べることも。。。

今日の所はお料理を選べないタイプ。

ガリシアスープ、牛肉と粉ふきいも、ピルグリムケーキでした

いつもと違うメニューだし、

ちゃんと手作りでよかったです

でもここお皿が一つしかでてこないので

ケーキを置く場所がなく。。。

手で持ったり、ナプキンの上に乗せて食べるはめに。。。

さすがスペイン
