Day 3
Last night’s dinner was served in the garden. Bread, salad, chicken, and flan. Everything but the flan got salted. And a 2-liter bottle of water.
Sleeping the dorm wasn’t great but I was grateful to have a bed. The dorm quieted about midnight and the local roosters woke me just after 6.
The route today was thru an industrial area – however they’ve added a pedestrian footbridge just prior to entering León. Before we had to go up over a hill and down the backside on a rocky slope. This was much safer.
I stopped late morning and got the Spanish version of a tuna melt.
I miss the little stork families that were in all the nests last time.
I met a few English-speaking pilgrims today and it was nice to chat along the way.
The old part of León is quaint and historical.
Checked into the Benedictine alburgue. I stayed here last time.
Feeling a bit exhausted and hoping for siesta before tapas. There is no pilgrim dinner here due to Covid.
