Mud, mud, glorious mud

Have our packing down to a fine art now – only takes minutes, but then we don’t have much. Both have packs under 7kg.

This morning we were slow though – it was raining again and we were reluctant to get moving. The rain and wind persisted for quite some time, but our gear stood up to the test. 

The tracks were even muddier and claggier today and there was a fair bit of cursing. In the end we sang songs to keep our spirits up. When we got into town we found a fuente and Rob cleaned our boots. We didn't want to turn up at our swish B&B covered in mud!

Luckily it was a short day and our accommodation in Villanueva de la Concepcion is absolutely superb and has made up for the mud!!
