[QUOTE="Grizzlybero, post: 1187863, member: 110261"] The streak was broken this morning as looking out the window of the albergue revealed a pea soup fog, accompanied by steady drizzle. Fortunately, it was a very short day of hiking planned (12km), as walking a 30+km section to reach the beginning of Hospitales was never on the cards for 2 lazy Aussies. So the morning was spent watching the fog slowly thin from the safety of the albergue, whilst munching on the cookies and cakes provided by the thoughtful owners. By 10am the drizzle had eased, and it was time to set off for Tineo, last town of any note before the Hospitales / Pola De Allande hotly debated way to proceed. The walk to Tineo, albeit lacking in any views due to the inclement weather, was very pleasant, spent mostly on dirt tracks through small tracts of forest. A few gentle slopes both up and down, all in all a very easy walk, and by 1230pm we found ourselves outside the municipal albergue. The door were not due to open until 2pm, so we divided and conquered as I left my pack and wandered to the supermakret to find lunch. We enjoyed the very best bread of the hike thus far (and that is saying something as all of the bread has been amazing) smothered in chorizo and cheese. At 130pm the owner arrived to check us all in (the numbers had swelled to 9 people in the first hour of waiting for the doors to unlock), which was swiftly done, a bunk secured, and resting time resumed. More supermarket delights, including fruit and donuts, were consumed throughout the afternoon, and then another quick trip to the supermarket resulted in a delicious microwave prepared dinner (it's all the albergue had) of 3 egg omelette containing tomato, onion and chorizo with rice. Total spend on day 4 for 2 people: €28 Total beds occupied in albergue: 16 Total road/concrete walking %: 20 [ATTACH]157574[/ATTACH][ATTACH]157575[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
