Tuesday, 30th of April 2013 - day 70 (10 weeks into the walk)
Well its another cold wet-ish day, menacing skies, a cruel wind and either 4km, 19km or 33km today..
We stop for a coffee and warm up at Santos de Maimora, an hour into the walk. then its up, out and trudge on ..... we are walking on gravel roads meandering through farm country and we pass the occasional farmer going about his business.
Another 3 hours and we reach Villafranca de los Barros ... we are frozen through and call it a day ( the wind was freezing and chilled us to the core).
Lunch by a roaring open fire was a treat with brandies to start us off.
We are in a Hotel tonight, so more privacy than usual.
We eat at the hotel as its wild and woolly outside .... hope it has all blown over by the morning.The food had a definite Indian flavour to it, found out later the chef was from Madras.
Off to bed now, the wind takes it out of you even more than the heat.
