Date: May 27th
Start: Leon
Stop: Rabanal del Camino
Distance: 67 km
Weather: Cool and cloudy later
Summary in one sentence: Nice to ride with another fellow.
On way out of Leon I crossed paths with Dick from Connecticut who had been riding since Le Puy. Very warm and chatty fellow. We stayed together all day. Stopped in Astorga where Tuesday market was happening so grabbed bread, cheese and fresh cherries for lunch. Then checked out the Gaudi designed cathedral in town. Gradual climb over next 20 km to Rabanal del Camino where we secured beds in albergue. Enjoyed couple of beers with Australian pelegrinos before Dick and I headed off menu at local restaurant.
