[QUOTE="filly, post: 1160277, member: 13818"] Sometimes I am grateful not to speak Spanish though I comprehend more than I let on. It saves me from such complications! Speaking of priests, a rather wonderful Don Camillo type passed me by in Sigüenza.. I asked him for a blessing. Bemused, I pointed to my Santiago ‘pin’ - he understood and blessed me ‘sur place’. We were actually both moved.. My Wiki’lost-the-plot’ vaguely works, given time (for it) and patience (from me). I am now on [USER=23967]@Magwood[/USER] tracks as I head to her fateful finale. What a fab friend she had in Nicky ( if I recall correctly ). Post lunch was great. I love a mountain pass. Breezes indicate you are near the top! Given what Dick Bird revealed this morning about a broken leg, I too, like @cclearly took the road option. I wanted to photograph the height sign too. I no longer follow ‘flechas amarilla(s)’ religiously and often make my own ‘desvios’. Being on a road (not a single vehicle passed) means my legs go onto automatic as I no longer have to constantly look out for boulders, large stones, scree etc. I tried to call Señorita Aurora at Hostal Muralla to no avail. When I did show up: 1. demanded passport! 2. offered room either in La Muralla building or Albergue 3. offered to provide a dinner 4. sold me cold litre of milk/can of cold bee/selection of fruit ie MOST accommodating 5. assured me that the phone numbers I had were 20 years old! HER NUMBER IS 699 867 933 when I asked if there was another bar in the village, she informed me that the only one ‘was at the camp site 1 1/2 kms away… LA MURALLA IS PERMANENTLY CLOSED except to pilgrims etc. THE ALBERGUE IS F A B U L O U S. Follow the small lane up from La Muralla. Timbre/ring bell and she buzzes you in the gate and in the front door. I note that the laundry door has a key and access to another key in the lock = reentry solution!

Someone has thoughtfully placed some stepping stones to one side. [/QUOTE]
