Day 23. Hospital de Orbigo – Astorga. A bit further for Kate’s 2nd day

Hospital didn’t live up to it’s name at all. We don’t need it yet!

the walk into Astorga was a little longer today a mere 17kms. But it was pretty in stages until we got to the outskirts of the city. We could see our hotel from a long distance ways. The 4 **** was a complete give away. Hotel Spa via de la Plata. Wow what a hotel. On the walk into town it was a sight when we got here. Beautiful….

we showered and walked into town, found lunch and then went to the cathedral and the Gaudi Palace. The Palace is very recognizable as Gaudi but not a outrageously distinctive as his work in Barcelona.

inside there were some beautiful statues on the wall which clearly more inspirational the the 3 ducks we have at home….
