Today was another challenging day, often called the leg wrecker, multiple step climbs and long steep descents. Made more difficult by rain.
Ed and I left early - 6am ish to try and avoid rain that was supposed to get heavier in afternoon.
Despite rain we made good time to first open bar around 11, after a Long steep climb.. which I call Heartbreakers.
We hit rain for first few hours, soft steady rain that on top of open hills, combined with wind made it cold. Then it was either no rain or light drizzle.
The bar was perfect timing after that long climb and I had one of the best tortilla bocadillos ever... an omelet on toasted bread.
After this we skipped the last severe hill, by staying on the road for a bit, then followed path into our stopping town.
Time for a nap as it's raining hard now... so glad we made it early. Later we'll hit a local bar restaurant and likely play cards with Camino friends.
