Sunday Afternoon

BySouthportRed

Got into Logrono on Friday evening and had a super night. The city was full of people of all ages till late. Had pintxos (tapas but northern) and an all round good night.
Set off walking to Ventosa (about 20Km) at 7am and arrived at about 1pm. The walk was lovely. Hot and sunny and the countryside was beautiful. Went out to eat with a group from the hostel we were staying in. Aussies, americans, Canadians, Germans and a couple of others. A good time was had by all.
Left Ventosa at about 7 this morning and we’ve walked about 25km to Ciruena, a strange place which has been built on an old village, but most of the houses and apartments are still for Sale. Eating in the hostel tonight. 2 courses with wine for 7 Euros. More later.
