- Time of past OR future Camino
- Too many and too often!
I arrived in Villarente yesterday a little tired and footsore after a long-ish day. My first idea was to pass through Leon very quickly - cities are not "my thing". I'm very glad I changed my mind and opted for a short 13km day and a long rest in this fascinating town. All the more so because today Leon has a medieval fair complete with suckling pigs, giant paella, punk bagpipers, and camels in the street. I met the pipers in Burgos a few days ago Bizarre but fun. So after a gentle morning's walk and a truly excellent lunch I am now settling down to the challenge of completing the world's slowest pub crawl in a town beautifully suited to the task. For those who are busy micro-managing your next Camino please leave a little room to change your mind. It can be so worthwhile.
