Day 5 - 29.06.2020

It's dark, we leave Najerra early in the morning, but we somehow manage to get lost, on the way out of the village there is a detour to Azofra and we were convinced, although we had looked before we left on maps, that we don't need to enter the village. Of course we came to cover a few kilometers before we found out we took a little detour. The stage is quite easy, with dirt and gravel roads and in some places the roads have been asphalted or paved.


We were not bothered by those extra miles we made, because it was a blessing to see whole fields of vineyards, although cereal crops began to gradually replace them. We were quite calm, although we hadn't seen the distinctive signs of the Way for some time, we started looking on the internet where we really were, the problem was the bad signal. In order to return to the route, we take the direction of Santo Domingo de la Calzada, and finally we arrive, without too much effort.




It's nice to see people on the road, even though it wasn't very busy, that greet us or even stop to talk to us, an encouraging and uplifting feeling that warmed your heart and made you feel that you are not alone anymore. In Santo Domingo de la Calzada hostels are closed and we did not find pensions under 50 euros (we decided that would be the budget), so we went on.

We reach Redecilla del Camino, here only one hostel owner answers the phone. Albergue Essentia, a place where jokes are on the menu, you feel at home, music and goodwill blend perfectly with home-cooked food.
