Day 20 - 30k - Calzadilla de Los Hermanillos

Had our first below par meal last night but the wine washed it down anyway. Watched the Barcelona vs Real Madrid game in the bar last night. All of the locals were shouting for Real Madrid. Every time one of the Barca players started writhing on the ground the fella beside was shouting ¨Hospital¨. Walked the 3k to Terradillos de Los Templarios this morning which I am reliably informed was the half way point from St Jean Pied de Port to Santiago. Had breakfast there and made good progress to arrive at Calzidilla at 3.30pm. The camino splits about 10k back from here. We took the quieter route which was hard work and very boring. We were worried that the Albergue would be full as it is quite small and the next one is 18k away. Met a girl from Offally last night who has been walking for six weeks. She started way back in France somewhere. Also met a fella from Kilkenny city this evening. We are going to catch up with him for dinner and then watch the Utd vs Schalke match. Stocked up in a tiny supermarket for provisions as we have an 18k hike tomorrow without any refreshments. Got a bit of sun today; didn´t have the long-sleeved shirt on and neglected to put suncream on my arms. Made good progress today so we should be in striking distance of Leon by Friday.
