April 18 Monestario to Fuente de Cantos (Stage 5)


We had an early start at 6. It stays dark until 7:15 so we are like detectives trying to find the yellow arrows that lead us on our way. Mara and George left with us so there were 4 sets of eyes. We had a short day only 22 or 24 k. Each book has a slight difference in numbers. It was a lovely walk no great mountains or hills. We arrived about 10:15. Very early but the albergue was open. The albergue is a converted  convent. It is very lovely.  We actually have rooms with only 4 bunks and plenty of room . There are 23 beds. There is wifi and a kitchen.There is a bathroom with 4 toilets and 4 showers very nice. Redone 7 years ago. Cost is 10 euros. A very large supermarket is a few blocks a way. We will attempt to cook dinner together. It is a big building therefore the albergue is very cold.
