Our stay at Albergue Verde was really special. It’s a “green” Albergue with a real Bohemian feel. They had their own vegetable garden and greenhouse. Our dinner was vegetarian but we snuck in ham and cheese for lunch. We were with Glynnis and Robert from South Africa and Jean Marie from France.
Before dinner we all took a yoga class to stretch out our sore muscles and joints. Yes, this included Tom, too!
This Albergue is so popular with volunteers there were 12 volunteers for 28 pilgrims. As a result they erected a yurt for thr volunteers to sleep in.
We were serenaded before a really nice dinner and then Bryson from Canada also played guitar and sang a few songs.

Our walk on October 6th was 22 k or 13.6 miles. Tom has a blister on his heal that he got on our rest day in Leon so we treated it and hope it doesn’t get worse tomorrow.
We stayed in a really nice albergue with a very pretty courtyard where we relaxed before dinner.
Dinner was vegetarian again and delicious. The first course was pea soup and each serving dish read “Buen”, “Camino” or had the iconic arrow. The second course was an amazing vegetable lasagna.
It’s nice to hear you have been staying at such nice albergues and meeting
so many friendly people. I can’t believe Tom ate pea soup. I hope his foot is better. I love you guys and am looking forward to seeing you soon. You are amazing.
Thanks Lida! Tom’s blister is better. It’s hard to believe we only have 10 days left to Santiago.
