Atapuerca

It was a lovely walk through wooded areas today. Despite a couple of steep uphills, we did well with the cooler temperature and gusting wind.

Our days are quite predictable. We usually begin walking between 7 and 8 am. If no breakfast is provided we find the closest place that is open and provides some nourishment. Breakfast usually consists of toast and a beverage. If we have found a  shop open the night before, we buy provisions to eat on our way to the next albergue. Shops tend to close between noon and 4:30 or 5:00 pm. We usually arrive at our next albergue any time between 12:30 and 2:30 pm. 

Once we get to the albergue, our first order of business is to shower. We rate the showers as to how much space we have and whether there is place  to put our clothes so they don't get wet. Cleanliness and water temperature are very important factors. Once showered,we tend to our laundry. We usually take a stroll to check out our surroundings and find food for the next day. After that it is time to blog and relax with free time until dinner.

Tomorrow we are off to Burgos. When we arrive we will have completed 300 km.
