Donna - May 16, 2015 - Leon --> Villar Mazarife - 21.4K

Today was s short walk (only 12 miles) in preparation for a 19 mile hike the next day.  We tried to get some breakfast on the way but very little was open.  Even though it was a short walk today, I think Kim and I felt the effects of low energy from lack of food.   The Camino split with two options ending in different towns and the signs were very confusing.  Luckily Kim and I figured it out without going off course too many steps .  We heard a pilgrim who wasn't as lucky describe her day of trying to find her way back - she was close to tears from the frustration.

The land is beginning to look more like Texas but in the distance are mountains with snow.

Our phone call for reservations worked again and the accommodations are clean and pleasant - although 50 euros seems a little high.

Hopefully we can re-energize for the longest hike to date which will take us to Astorga.
