So after our personal breakfast service from our hosts we got the bill and frankly after the guy feeding us beer, lunch, dinner and breakfast and the room for the night and our soft drinks we were amazed at the bill for 60 euros. Cracking place and couldn’t recommend it more highly. We headed out on the road and it was pretty smooth until the road joined the motorway where we joined back on to the camino but the camino was on good form with a wide dusty path allowing us to make good speed. Then after a powerade from a burger can on the camino we got back on the road we knew we has some climbing to do on the switch backs and it wasn’t easy cycling in the heat easily pushing 30c by 10 am again but we slowly made our climb. We had read there was a good down hill section and although not as long as promised it was a great bit of road.
We soon closed in on Viana which was a town we had discussed aiming for but we although tired decided the 8k to Logrono was achievable so after we got another powerade we made good time and was here for 1pm. That was a total of 35 miles today and were feeling ok so far but not pushing anything yet and fine tuning our eating and drinking strategies and it’s easy to continue on when really you should stop. Lograno is a big city so after a search on my trusty booking.com app found a nice hotel although we couldn’t check in until 4 and this ruined our shower and snoozing pattern so will defo be checking the check in times in the future. So we went and had a look around town. There is a festival week going on at the mo and the town was packed. But we had a spot of lunch and chilled until we could get in the hotel.
We soon discovered our hotel has a jacuzzi and sauna so we are just finishing up our meal and heading back to the hotel for a soak.
