Today was the start of our Camino Frances from Leon to Santiago.  We took the city bus out of Leon to La Virgen del Camino (8.5 km) to avoid the urban sprawl and more importantly, give us just a 13.3 km walk to test MB’s recovery from her injury (whatever it was).

I fussed about the walking speed, trying to slow MB down, so that healing of her injury could continue. The walk went well, with  no pain!! Hooray!!

We were careful to take the correct turn off for Villar de Mazarife, to avoid the awful roadside route I did last time. The weather has changed and we had a few showers that required changes of clothing.

Arrived for the night at Albergue Tio Pepe.  It’s okay and the people are very nice.
