We have many wonderful photos of Leon (stunning), but have very poor intent signal at our new home for the evening.  We will try to update tomorrow.

Let’s try this again. After checking into the Parador we did a bit of a stroll through the courtyard. Just your typical 13 th century monastic courtyard.

And your typical 13th century statuary in the typical courtyard.

Followed by a stroll through your typical 8th century walked city …

Oh, did I mention the typical 11th – 17 th century cathedral?

The hike to Villavante was a long one. Worth noting is that after 8 or 9 days of hay and wheat, the Meseta became a source of corn, and much more rolling hills.

Finally after 19 miles, we reached Villavante and our place for the night, El Molino Galoches.  Once again, the photographer does a poor job, but the B&B is a converted mill and is built straddling a stream. Very cool!
