    Dinner time on the VDLP

    My friend @Shona and I walked the VdlP in spring 2022, we got into the habit of eating a menu del dia in the afternoon, it wasn't very often that we missed out on the lunchtime menu del dia and had to eat food we had with us or eat late like the locals, sometimes places weren't opening until 9pm...

    LIVE from the Camino How busy it is at the moment?

    Currently two days walk from Caceres having started in Sevilla.

Lots of booking beds ahead going on...
