Well after the start this morning things just got better and better. The walk to Fromista was a joy I followed an irrigation canal that went on for miles and I crossed over it via a very narrow walkway, and into Fromista. I stopped along the way at an alternative albergue for lunch, it had tepee's as the accommodation with a small bar come canteen over looking the gardens. One of the guests staying had more bites than Dracula’s favorite victim. I only stopped for a drink and something to eat, I had a look around and thought it must be good 30000 flies can't all be wrong. I settled for a cheese and tomato bocadillo. I saw a very large Spanish pilgrim with a very small back pack if you can call it that, walked in ordered a beer drank it and went out side. I finished up walked outside just in time to see him put his backpack into the boot of a taxi. A lot of Spanish people do the Camino bit-by-bit and return to do another section later in the year or even the following year. Really pleased that I managed 34km today. Any way I'm now in a small town called Carrion De Los Condes and I'm staying in a very nice old convent, and life is good
Ps I hope you enjoyed the Amos Lee song it's one of my all time favorites
