Day 18 - Half Way!
I did talk to him on the phone. It was a good day traveling... blisters are there still, but not bothering him as much. Warm day and he walked mostly with Jim and Aiden (but chatting with others as you can imagine).
There's a pic of Jim letting his feet recuperate by taking shoes and socks off for a while. Yes, Jerry does the same thing. Before they left their place this morning, the owner there tried to make them a RSVP at the next Albergue. Sorry, the inn was full.
They took off and planned on finding something once they were in Ledigos.
Got a triple again... private bathroom for the three of them, only 20 Euros for each of them. Well worth it they feel.
Jerry's new favorite drink there is a 'Clara'; we know it as 'Shandy'. When they come in for the day, that's the first drink he has... and another... and maybe another...he said it's only about 2% alcohol.
I asked if he's always dressed all covered up. He said yes, he just doesn't want to burn his skin. Temps today were in the 80's. I guess it heated up a bit!
Dinner was late for them... they ended up eating AFTER the crowd had left. The Chef was pretty much their personal chef... although, there was a menu that was different than the other Pilgrims got. He provided pics of that... He said there were two 'loaf' type items... One was salmon and, forgive me, I don't remember what the other one was. He said it was a great meal.. so good I guess, he forgot to send his notes...
If I get them tomorrow morning, I will post them...
