three minutes left on the computer. In Los Arcos. We left early in the morning as usual and passed one of the most famous sites on the camino: the Irache Wine fountain. Yes folks, a fountain with wine, free flowing and for pilgrims. Its not as generous as one might think: most pilgrims leave between 5-7 in the morning. Not exactly what one craves at such an hour- need to have a PM there! But it is nice to belly up for a wee taste.
An amazing walk today through incredible wheat fields and olive groves. Not a town or bodega in sight for 8 miles or so. The skies finally cleared, there´s not a cloud in them, except that the temp remained around 62F degrees. Its supposed to warm up tomorrw. Big Spanish match tonight v Honduras. Only stayed for the first half. 29K to do tomorrow so must hit the hay. Cecelia has met a few younger folke aka Pedros, she is in better form. Will be in Logrono tomorrow and will try to muster up a better posting. In municipal hostal . Finally filled up at 4pm. Will get more crowded from here on in I suspect.
Gotta go brosser mes dents!
Buenos noches!
