Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 33 – Zamora to Montamarta 21 km
Wow! I got that over quickly – a cold shower. There have been several times when my travelling companions have reported only cold water, but I have always found someone to sort it out before I commit myself, but today … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 32 – Cubo del Vino to Zamora 33 km
I made an early start this morning as much heat was forecast for the day. However it started off freezing and I had to stop to put on my coat and a pair of socks on my hands. There was … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 31 -Salamanca to Cubo del Vino 38.8 km
I didn’t mention much about the Albergue in yesterday’s post. The Albergue Casa la Calera in operated by Los Amigos del Camino. There are sixteen beds in two fairly small rooms, separate bathroom facilities (yay!) and a good kitchen. It … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 30 – San Pedro de Rozados to Salamanca 24.5 km
I updated yeaterday’s entry, so if you want to know how the day went please go back and take a look. Today started very fresh but a lot less cold than yesterday and I had soon warmed up with a … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 29 – Fuenterroble to San Pedro de Rozados 29 km
Yesterday evening there were more than twenty for dinner. I enjoyed the company of an English speaking woman for a change – an American couple who are walking a little and taxi-ing a lot. There was an Austrian guy who … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 28 – Calzada de Béjar to Fuenterroble 22.1 km
Last night’s communal dinner was good and cost 9€. Vegetable soup to start. Then came some bowls of salad and a plate of grilled pork loin. My first thought was that the meat was a bit mean to go around … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 27 – Aldeanueva del Camino to Calzada de Béjar 22.7 km
Last night’s meal was spectacular value at Casa Sebas. I still haven’t learned, and ordered a menu del dia. There was a choice of five or six dishes for each course. I ordered seafood soup, roast chicken (which arrived with … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 26 – Carcaboso to Aldeanueva del Camino 40 km
I have to say the cava went down very well yesterday afternoon. The hostel filled up with three spanish cyclists, the group of three French – two women and one man, French Olivier, Spanish Santos (that is now two very … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 25 – Galisteo to Carcaboso 12.9 km
I was expecting to find a charming pueblo inside the castellated walls of Galisteo, but the only thing that charmed me was this little fellow. I had been planning another fair hike today but because of the holiday weekend I … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 24 – Cañaveral to Galisteo 33.7km
Today’s walk was another of two halves – or more accurately two thirds and a third. The first part was glorious, just how I like it, walking through meadows, not alongside or between them. Lots of flowers and trees (and … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 23 – Casar de Cáceres to Cañaveral 38.5 km
There were ultimately no disasters relating to the top bunk – I took a chair from the dining room and once standing on this was able perch my bum on the bed and swing my legs up. Most ladylike! However … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 22 – Valdesalor to Casar de Cáceres 25.9 km
I eventually found a shop in the strange little town of Valdesalor, but only because a fellow pilgrim walked me to it. I had previously walked straight past it as there was no indication whatsoever that there was anything but … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 21 – Alcuéscar to Valdesalor 25.9 km
Well, the tour was interesting, if a little depressing. I didn’t understand everything that was said, but the gist was that this organisation started by P Leocadio Galán Barrena (see first photo), who died in the 1990‘s, runs five homes … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 20 – Aljucén to Alcuéscar 20.2 km
Last evening I returned to the bar for some supper and joined two charming guys from Birmingham, and discoverd one of them was a member of the pilgrim forum I belong to, going by the byline of @musicman. I really … Continue reading
Camino Mozárabe (Via de la Plata) – day 19 – Mérida to Aljucén 17 km
My first night on top of a bunk bed was spent (for the first/most part) most uncomfortably. Feet that have walked a long distance ache and throb, and possibly/probably have blisters. My feet complied with the norm. Lying on my … Continue reading
