I’m only happy when it rains…




Day 10 from Sahagun to Leon City!

As wet as an otters pocket again today but I was determined to make it to Leon on a boring section. I donned my massive fashionable Decathalon ful length poncho (u may laff) and only stopped a couple of times on the way, happy to sit warmly inside the billowing bag of tranquility, with the music in my lugs and just kept on pedalling. I passed the lines of waterlogged druids, marching/squelching on to their pre determined salvation in Santiago. The poor sinners are dropping like flies…I hear.



Even the horses had long faces.

On the up side, I arrived early into Leon, checked in and went out for an afternoon sesh of local beer/tapas/wine/tapas/wine/raciones/wine…etc.etc….eat/sleep/repeat, pilgrim free time. They do the bars so well here,every drink ordered, served with tapas and then my ‘racione’ of the famous hand-cut ‘Cecina de Leon’ jamon was superb.













Still some bars I was afraid to enter…🤔




Garbage for tonight’s track…it’s been a dreadful/restful day but if the sun doesn’t start to shine I might be turning right tomorrow!
