Walking through El Bierzo

Our walk today took us through the wonderful vineyards of the El Bierzo region. Most of the walk was on dirt roads passing row after row of grapevines and fruit trees. We have already had a chance to eat fresh cherries in Molinaseca. Unfortunately, it is still too early in the growing season for grapes or apples.

The sun was out in full force and we made sure to use plenty of suntan lotion. Tonight we are staying in an albergue that is the strangest place you have ever seen. It is like a congolmeration of all types of buildings pushed together.

Well we are off to mass at the Convento de la Concepcion in Villafrance del Bierzo.
