Going Dutch in Zafra  with first blister!

Nature says thou shalt keep the air, skate, swim, walk, ride, run. When you have worn out your shoes, the strength of the sole leather has passed into the fibre of your body. I measure your health by the number of shoes and hats and clothes you have worn out. He is the richest man who pays the largest debt to his shoemaker. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1851

Well, I could do with bookmaker;methinks one is almost caput ,hence the blister; but we still managed 26 Km. 

   There were wild flowers in abundance as well as the “fauna” above… 

A much needed Bocadillo and our favourite “Glacial “,Cruzcampo.

We met up with some Dutch Pelegrinos in the Main Square, in Zafra and spent a long time chatting and buying….! 

 The next day we found breakfast in a roadside Hostal,en route for Villafranca de los Barros,the wine capital of this, the Guadiana region.A thought that kept me going,despite the blister and some very rough surfaces. 

 This was another long walk; we needed several water breaks. 

    We  were grateful to enter Casa Perin,a tastefully designed  residence,and delighted to discover that the hostess was also a Brewer – our first Spanish micro brewery! Cheers! 

 We only had one………for now.
