Monday, July 29: El Burgos Ranero to Mansallia de las Mulas

18.9km today. 

It was a cool foggy morning. But the sunrise was just beautiful. 


Remains of an old house. 

More hobbit houses

Apparently this bar is recognizable from the movie The Way. 

The town here is inside the medieval walls and pilgrims enter through the doorway of St James (what else would it be called...?). 

 A decent size grocery store on the camino means it has the food divided into multiple sections or even has two isles. Most of the "stores" have one refrigeration case on one wall, two walls are shelves, the forth is the door and there is enough room for like 5 people inside. There are two really decent small grocery stores on the same street as the albergue. Between the two I was able to find all the ingredients I needed to make chicken piccata with pasta. It would have been perfect if I could have going carrots too. 
Chicken-€2.25
Lemon Juice-€1.55
Chicken Bullion, all natural-€1.95
Pasta-€1.00
White Wine, 1L box-€.99

The wine was the cheapest. As I didn't need it all I gave it to other pilgrims to drink. 

I cooked it all up and shared some with Katrin from Belgium who in turn shared some curried veggies with me. I even had extra for dinner later. 


I stayed at the Amigos de Perigrino for €5, did a load of wash €3 and just read and relaxed.
