La Liga, the Spanish soccer league opens tomorrow night. No important matches, Saturday Barcelona is playing late Sunday Real Madrid is playing late. The earlier matches start at 2000 and a certain tension may be felt, bars/cafes/restaurants may be busier than usual when you want to go eat. Spanish football aficionadoes are very loyal, boisterous during the matches, and noisy until very late at night should their team win. You have been warned.

I started out from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port on 1 May. It turned out to be an unforgetable day. Above 1,000 m or so it snowed, catching many people unprepared. Later that day "many" walkers were...
And another attempt looms, to buy a decent Poncho after trying and failing in the previous two likely towns. Anyone know where an Altos or similar might be bought in Leon, please? 😁
