Sunday, 18th of August 2013

Decided this morning to hit the road again, left at first light about 7.30 ish. Stopped for a coffee on the outskirts of Burgos, then onto Atapuerca, some 19-20km down the road .
I could tell its going to make it to mid 30's again today .... but still comfortable walking early in the morning. Once out into the farmlands, it dry and hardly a tree to be seen, shade non existent.Walk into Atapuerca just after midday, temp must be in the high 20's .... first things first, a long cool drink at the first bar I find ... this is not a big town so may be the only bar? Lunch out of the way its line up for a bed for the night at the Aubergue .... then settle in wash and clean up .... clothes dry in minutes as its hot, hot, hot.
Hook up with fellow pilgrims and back to the bar .... conversations are weird a numerous languages .... well its what makes this interesting. A mishmash of food on the table with everyone diving in, then back to the Aubergue for a restful evening .... after ear plugs are in, and drift off to the snuffles, snorts and down right loud snoring of some.
