If you’re a map checker, you won’t find Quintanilla on the Camino. Once again, we’re a bit off the path in a wonderful Casa Rural, La Aldea Encantada. It is near Villamayor del Rio … if you’re checking.

Now, for the first: Even with our earliest starts, we’ve been able to either make coffee or buy coffee, first thing. Today, Bill took a wrong turn on leaving the hostal and we found ourselves outside of Santo Domingo … without coffee. And, 6 kilometers to go before some could be purchased. Diane took the news well. Here is a photo of her before coffee:

Fortunately, we walked briskly and made it to Granon where a great cup of coffee was found and the beast was tamed.

On today’s walk, we crossed into our third region of Spain, Castilla y Leon.  Interestingly, the border crossing was much better marked than the crossing from France to Spain.

Another 12 miles in the bank today. Laundry, shower, eat, Internet, sleep. The life of a Peregrino!
