31 May, Monestario to Cadzillo - A Town too Far

Set off at 5.45am. Stopped for a coffee on the edge of town, then walked through the dim light down a track through farms and barley fields. Got a bit warm about 11am. Seemed a bit early to stop in Fuente de Cantos, so decided to walk on to Cadzillo. Unfortunately the Albergue is another 2km out of town, off the camino, in a very isolated place. Yuri the Italian and Carlos from Malaga were there. We played a Spanish word game on my iPod then walked back into town for dinner. Unfortunately there was nothing open at 8pm. Finally found a restaurant on the main road, tractors outside. The waiter turned on TV, thought we might want to watch the bull fighting. We walked back about 9pm, the cafe in town was now open. Lot of mosquitos about. Have acquired some blisters.

Heading out from Monestario in the early morning.

That far!
