[QUOTE="alansykes, post: 253651, member: 9811"] Almorox to Cebreros was a lovely walk, and I had my picnic by the toros, beautiful mysterious beasts. So different, in the middle of nowhere, to the one on the bridge at Salamanca (which poor Lazarillo had his head smashed against by the nasty blind man). I liked the clean air of Cebreros. As it's only 15km on to San Bartolomé de Pinares, I decided to have a late start so as to see the Museo de la Transición. I liked it very much, and it quite took away the nasty taste of Torrijos' Calle Yagüe by reminding you how vanishingly few of those there are left, compared to the number of plazas de la Constitución and vias de la Libertad. The bits about Suárez and the other wonderful people who helped steer Spain away from the waters of despotism were very tactfully done, especially as the video showing Tejero's pantomime putsch was on the blink. It was still pouring with rain when I left the museum at about 11am, but I had a glorious Caspar David Friedrich moment an hour later when I got to the Puerto de Arrebatacapas, and suddenly I was in bright sunshine with the clouds shrouding La Mancha swirling at my feet. The rest of the day on the high plateau was fabulous, with views, junipers and delicate autumn crocuses, culminating in San Bartolomé with its cosy albergue (free) opened for me by the mayor herself, and where I was later joined by a Valenciano pilgrim and his very polite border collie (I come from the border that border collies come from, so we got on well, although I suspect he may not be welcome everywhere).
