Hello again!!!
We had an amazing time in the albergue last night! We stayed in a peroquial albergue, which means it is owned by the church, donation only, and run by different volunteers throughout the year. It was beautiful! The albergue was in a bell tower attached to the cathedral and we got to got to the top of the tower and see the town. We arrived and asked if we were at the albergue and asked if this was it and they said, "This is not an albergue! It is a hospital! We are here to take care of you and give you whatever you need." It was a breath of fresh air to have such amazing people there. The donations from the people who stay the night before pay for the food for the following day. The donation box was open and had a sign on it that read, "Give what you can, take what you need." Absolutely amazing. I should live my life like that more often. We all pitched in and cooked dinner together in Grañon, as well as Los Arcos the night before, and now we will do the same tonight in Tosantos.
Tomorrow will be our day of rest and we will most likely take a bus or taxi into Burgos and spend the day resting and seeing some of the town.
Check out Trey´s Facebook profile and we have several pictures from the first part of the trip posted!
Talk to you again soon!!!!
