Dinner in Rabanal

 



I was happy that we were in a different town from the doctors, et al. I wanted to meet some new people and have different experiences. I got it today in Rabanal. After my siesta, Lea and I walked over to the café where we met Fran earlier. 


We met up with a bunch of people we knew, and met some new faces. Mary and Craig from Sacramento were there, Kim and Judy from Newfoundland. We met Neil from England hereinafter “Sting“. 

Then cowboy Russ showed up. 


Judy and Kim invited us to dinner with them. The cowboy came along. we went to a nice restaurant in town. There were about 10 of us. Food was excellent. I had margarata meat (bull). Very tasty. They student like beef Bergen young. You know what I mean despite googles failure to understand me. We had a couple of bottles of wine and shared stories, reasons for being on the Camino, etc.    Turns out the cowboy got bit by a dog on the Camino. He wanted it to be a story about a vicious dog. It was a Chihuahua. It got infected so he’s hobbled a little bit.



Tomorrow morning we’re going to the iron cross. It’s the highest point of the Camino. There’s a big iron cross there. You’re supposed to leave some object like a stone behind. We will leave early and try to get there for sunrise. We stopped at a store and got provisions for a little picnic.


Love,
