Restless night sleep but no intense pain, just dull ache most of night.
Breakfast was served at 10 am, coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice (really), toast, breads, muffins, and jams. Very nice and filling.
At some point this morning, we are being driven back to town to the hostel. Don't know time yet.
I washed everything by hand last night. Most is still damp and will dry in hostel today. I've packed almost all my stuff with exception of socks, they are laying in window sill in sun, drying.
This house appears to have been built several hundred years ago. Traditional construction of brick core with stone on outside and inside. Therefore the walls are about a foot thick. It was renovated between 2000 and 2002 to become a bed and breakfast. There are about 8 rooms, each rent for about 75€ a night. It sits on about 1/2 acre lot in small village just outside of La Estrada which is about 40km from Santiago de Compostela.
At 1120am, we headed out for town. Such a wonderful place we got to stay at. What a trip.
On our trip back, the father (owner of hostel and villa) gave us tour of La Estrada, described everything in Spanish. He speaks no English. His son, who gave us ride out yesterday, has college degree and speaks very good English.
We arrived back at hostel. We have room, shared, but plenty big with 2 beds and our own bathroom. We are planning on staying here until Monday morning. At that point we are taking a bus to Finisterre and staying for a few days.
Since I'm working on relaxing, I stayed in room and Paulette went out to whatever. I stayed until 520, then decided to go to running store to check on new shoes or inserts per doctors instructions. They were closed. Went to farmacia and they had inserts. Bought some with hole in heel specifically for bone spurs. Wore them back, not impressed, but will wear them again later.
Another day done, but ready to be home, I've had my fill.
