A Hard Day

Left Albergue at 7am after breakfast.  The rain had passed over, but it was still dark and cold. Ian struggled after a bad nights sleep. Coffee stop at Hontanas perked us both up. Passed through the ruins of San Antón,  we were amazed.  Huge 15th Century Nunnery that thousands of women must have spent their lives,  is now  all in ruins.  The albergue in Castrojeriz that we planned to stay in was closed for the day so we ended up in another albergue with a private room and our own bathroom. We are very tired physically and mentally and have decided to skip the next few days of the meseta and autobus to Leon.
Need time to recuperate and will stay at least 2 nights before tackling the mountains.
