Probably the jet lag but I was awake from just before 4 am … finally some people started shining their torches around and packing for the days walk at about 5 am so we hopped up and started getting our things together … we were up and out before 7.30 starting our second day of the Camino.
Muscles we didn’t realize we had were aching with a vengeance but we felt positive as we headed out into the early morning … walked through Puente La Reina before we headed up a very steep incline for about 30 minutes … it was extremely challenging. Then on through a couple of small towns a couple of kilometres apart (one of which still has my hat with my kangaroo badge and sunnies … note to self: Do not leave items on vending machine … put everything down on your pack … thankfully Faiza lent me her scarf … so I get to try a new look until I can buy another hat …).
About 1.30 we arrived at a town called Villatuerta (about 4 kilometers short of Estelle) and found the Casa Magica Albergue, which is fantastic and we highly recommend it !
Clean, well laid out, great very helpful staff, washing machine and dryer, covered outside area and … hammocks ! … they also provide a dinner meal for an additional cost.
