Yesterday I hoped to say hello to Rebekah Scott…. she translated ‚El gran caminante‘ from Spanish to English…. one member of my first Camino family recommended that as a camino – book… and I read that book at the moment in English. But she had to do ‚with a family emergency‘.
Yesterday in the albergue we had a dinner for the pilgrims. We were 3 persons. Normally these dinners are much fun, conversation and wine-drinking. There was one guy from South Korea…. but I could not talk more with him because of his limited English. But really like comedy was the woman from the UK. She used about 85% of her time for the smartphone, 14% of her time for finding the food on her plate and about 1% of her time for interesting communication like ‚yes‘, ’no‘ or ‚hmmmm….‘. Well, the food was good….
Today I stood up early and started walking. As the sun rose, I saw this on one of my legs….
I posted it in a camino forum and they said, it might be bed bugs. So I informed the last 2 albergues. Recommended decontamination to not carry on bed bugs is to use a dryer as the high temperature kills bed bugs. In my albergue the dryer does not work and in the next albergue they say ‚ no dryer if I do not sleep here (even if I had paid the 6 euros)’…. so it is washing machine and sun power….
In the morning before the sunrise I walked with a Spanish man…. and I could have at least a very basic communication in Spanish. The walk to El Burgo Ranero was okay(about 27km), today there was often some shadow…
