Day 19. Mansilla de las Mulas – Leon. Couple of days off

ok so there’s a time on my Camino when I want to have a couple of days off. It is 3 days in Leon. Kate gets here in Monday and I arrived from Mansilla late this morning.

Clearly i wasn’t the only one that thought the bus into Leon was a good idea.

Got into Leon. Such a lovely city. And a great choice not to walk today. The bus cost 1.26€. All industrial and not inspiring at the least. I left Arnaldo and found the hotel. Checked in, did washing, went to my room. Listened to a very disappointing game of football steaming on the Telstra AFL app through live radio. Grandstand is still great when you are away….

leon is a very beautiful city. I turn the corner in the old town and saw this……

Then took this….

Went to the supermarket and bought a bottle of Marques de Riscal, for memories sake.

spoke to Kate in Paris before she flew to Madrid. Holding up well.

now to find dinner….
