[QUOTE="LTfit, post: 629219, member: 8594"] See yesterday's post never uploaded. Internet connection was poor in the Albergue. Today Day 5 Los Huertos - Nava de la Asunción 33 km Day started out rainy, walking through muddy fields and grassy paths. The landscape has changed drastically - mountains make way for grain fields and sandy pine forests. No pilgrims in sight. Left the 2 Kiwis:) behind as they were planning a shorter stage. There is a five star albergue with sheets and towels for €18 (down from €20 per hospitalero from the refugio where I am staying) but I went to the €5 alternative in a room off the sports facilities. 4 beds, bathroom, fridge, microwave, blankets and electric heaters that toast up the room in a jiffy. Raúl came to open up and gave me the keys to two entrances. Two Belgians here last night otherwise only 4 others in June. Signage was on two occasions unclear (after Añe and before Santa María el Real de Nieve) as no arrows or mojones at 2 intersections). Glad I had Internet connection to check Google maps for location. Otherwise perfect up until now. [ATTACH=full]43470[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]43471[/ATTACH] Town Hall and cloister in Santa Maria. The church attached to the cloister was closed. [ATTACH=full]43472[/ATTACH] Funny thing happened during my walk through the pine forest (which reminded me of the Levante - makes sense, Arévalo is close by). Deep in thought and no one in sight I was surprised by a cycler coming up from behind. She stopped to chat, telling me of her previous Caminos to Santiago and that she had walked the Mozárabe in May from Almería to Mérida. "Do you know it?" she asked. I had to laugh. "Did you meet up with a group of English speaking ladies?" I asked. "Oh yes, Maggie!" and she pulled out her phone to show me a picture of her with the mob! [USER=23967]@Magwood[/USER] - saludos de Margarita! Small world. [ATTACH=full]43473[/ATTACH] Not a bad way to end the day. Camino pleasures. [/QUOTE]
