22 October cool but not frigid partly overcast

A nothing walk and a nothing bike ride. Easy but of no interest.  Nothing on the way except a highway – the Camino runs right along the N120- and a boring one at that.  

Arriving in this nothing town found, as expected, nothing except this Hostel we are at.

In theory it has a net connection but the signal is everywhere so poor that it is on just a few percent of the time.

Tomorrow in Astorga which promises to be an interesting small city of 14000.

It has the Gaudi designed bishops palace as well as one of the oldest bridges in Spain.

The bridge was the site, mid 15th century, of a month long jousting tournament.  Victors went onto Santiago with some trophy.

Catch up story:  met a South Korean woman walking alone. Shared a drink and some conversation.  Her third time walking the Spanish section.  Calms her down after the pressure of living in Seoul.  Likes the Spanish cooking and does not miss rice or Kim chee or other dishes Don has introduced me too. Walks very fast. Will do the route in 26 days. 800 kilometers. 
Second catch up. Unfortunately no picture of the power wash device found at a gas station. Was able to remove all accumulated dirt on my bike and ….. power was QB boots. Almost like new.
