The was no breakfast again at the albergue and it was 8km to the next town. We set off again in the darkness with a great view of the stars above us. Very little light pollution on the meseta.
I had a good pace due to the need for breakfast. Once fuelled up at El Burgo Ranero it was a 13 km to Reliegos. We stopped half way for a picnic before continuing.
There was very little scenery wise today, I hardly took any pictures. The route followed a road all day. The weather was perfect for walking however as it didn’t get too hot.
We arrived in Mansilla but all the albergues were full and we hadn’t reserved a bed the day before. For the last few days we have not planned ahead and just looked for a bed when we arrive; after a ring around over a pint we settled on at hotel. The last free room in the town!
Tomorrow is Leon, we will have to book ahead for there, as all those that skip the meseta, end up in Leon.
