A short day to Sanguesa

We We had breakfast today in one of the two standing buildings in Ruesta, paying due homage to the people honored there, the Republican prisoners reputedly used to build the dam. 

The walk was short and sweet, only 23 km, with a stop in the middle in a really pretty little town in the hills. 

Bad picture but pretty little plaza. 





We are so lucky that there are well-spaced towns along this route with cafes for cold drinks or coffee. 

Today's walk was about 6 km up on a forest track, then about 4 km up and doesn't to Undues, where we had a break, then 14 or so really sunny and not too interesting kms into the town of Sanguesa, where there are a few really beautiful churches and official buildings. 

The albergue is municipally owned and operated. Spotlessly clean, nice bath and showers and clean sheets for each bed!!!  We could wash our clothes in an honest to goodness washing machine for 2€. We have had a good menu del dia and will now walk around to visit a few nice old (siglo XII-XIV) churches. 

All is well and we are very happy to be here.
