We made it to León

After a tough TOUGH day of walking nonSTOP for 5 hours... We finally made it to Mansilla de las Mulas (horn of the saddle of the mule) We feel like old mules. We walked a two thousand year old roman road for 19 Km... In the footsteps of Emperor Augustus. Note: Jep, now we know why you ride a bike on the Camino! It was beautiful, serene, and damn long.. AND we started out with out coffee which was really a challenge. Once in Mansilla we had coffee, found the bus schedule, and on the way to the bus station we met some very nice locals. The people all around Spain are just wonderful. A man, 'TV', his wife Marcella, and friend Jose Luis, stopped us on the corner and began chatting with us. Really nice people. We had 20 minutes to spare before the bus came. 'TV' took us around the corner to a building where he had his "garage" and in there he had a small refridge like box... Opened it up and he had EGGS! Some on the verge of hatching, partially hatched. A variety of sizes.. Oca, pavo... Goose, chickens, smaller Chechens... He was going to show us his little chicks but the bus came so we had to run. It was a great encounter. We caught the bus to León and found a Posada to stay in. The other great news is that we found an El Corte Ingles where we bought a camera card adapter for the iPad! So we can now send more pictures. We also bought tougher insoles for our shoes..Did I mention our feet were killing us? More to come.... Buen Camino!!
