Now some of you may recall I was planning on taking a Rice Cooker this year.
My wife Pat is very much a rice addict, being from Thailand. She was worried that she wouldn't enjoy the local food here in Spain. So I bought a tiny rice cooker to bring along for emergency doses of rice as required....
Thankfully the rice cooker got left behind. The emergency food supply being changed to a water heating coil, a lightweight cup and some packets of one minute Thai noodles.
En route to our Sarria start point we had a very pleasant 2 nights in Madrid. There she discovered paella and sangria and the tapas market!
Then, prior to starting out from Sarria we had our planned 'warm up' walk up past the Cruz DE ferro. The previous night in El convento she discovered the pilgrim's menu that included lentil soup....and very tasty home made fries...
Last night in Sarria she 'feasted' on pulpo. ...peppers.....prawns. ....croquettes. .....
My pack is also loaded down with 'snacks' to eat along the way... churrizo ........ salami......
And I know at our accommodation tonight the pilgrim's menu will be really tasty and calorie packed.....
what have I created? On my Camino last year I felt like Joost 'eating his way' across Spain.
This year I am joined by 'Joostina' !
