We are in Peñaflor

Heavy rain and very Dutch landscapes swept us to a pueblo called Peñaflor. We are warming up in the local bar chatting with the locals, over a heart-warming carajillo. The bartender just stamped our credentials and gave us his blessing. We are feeling great, have already done 20 Km's and will do another 24 to Medina.

At Medina we will break for lunch and will be on the lookout for the bicycle shop that's supposed to be there. We need to stock up on spare inner tubes as we have only got 1 left. Knowing our luck we need not taunt the almighty too much, you never know what he has in stock for us.

In the village of Wamba we chatted with a couple of Australian pilgrims, more or less our parents age, who are also doing the Madrid camino. It's their third Camino, respect!

At the moment we are chatting with the local farmers, who are hiding out in the local until the rain stops. They need the fields to dry out, such that the immense quantities of barley we just cycled through can be harvested.

Hasta la próxima
