Buenos Dias from Burgos – population 175,000 – alt. 860 m founded the year 884 and was home to the warlord El Cid. He and his wife Jimena lie in the 13th century Catedral de Santa Maria among the most beautiful in Spain. A vibrant city with magnificent architecture and great food.

Leaving here at 6 am tomorrow and entering “The Meseta” a wilderness of endless crop fields with little or no shade and few small villages. This will take several days of walking to get through….not sure about WiFi….please be patient.

A city worth visiting

The food – three courses w/bottle of wine, water and bread 12 Euro per person. Nine different choices for each course – the best roast lamb ever – garlic soup and delicious desserts….absolutely sinfull
