Second Day

La Virgen del Camino to Villar de Mazarife:

 Our first day of 15 km.  Constantly  being passed by other pilgrims. I thought I was going a good pace, but appearently not.  Kathy had wanted to line the bags since she had been checking the weather site. I said no, of course I was wrong , again. Some dark clouds , thunder and lightening and 7mm of rain.   The route is quite well marked, though we were misled a bit at Chozas  de Abajo as the yellow arrows led us to a bar.  Bye this time we were wet and took the time for a hot chocolate .  Arrived in the late afternoon and booked in at Tio Pepe's.  So far the only albergue we plan to stay at .   Have to share the bathrooms with a gaggle of pilgrims.  (Ok we're spoilt. )  I did manage to reserve a private room at 4 times the regular price. We hadn't eaten much all day and are waiting for places to open. They don't even think of supper unti 7.  Kathy will be starting her own Blog as she considers mine deficient.  We will continue to do the 15 km for the next couple of days untilAstorga, as I have reservations based on that figure but both think we can up the mileage next week.
