Farewell to Friends, Rest Day In León- 23 April 2022

After sharing many miles, laughs, stories, poor pronunciations, albergue rooms, dinners, breakfasts, movie and music recommendations, this morning we sadly said farewell to our Danish friends, Mikael and Mads. They have a deadline to meet and we need a rest day after 3 weeks of walking.

We shared a last breakfast, for now, in a cafe on the Cathedral plaza. Then we walked a mile on the Camino and said farewell.

James and I will miss them.

A rest day is pretty much just that, sitting and laying around, catching up on some washing, watching Brooklyn 99 from the start . . . again.

Then we hit the streets for some lunch. At 8:00 the streets were all but empty. By early afternoon there are people everywhere.

We visit the Museum of León, a fantastic place which we recommend everyone visit if they have some spare time.

Then we go to rest up for a few hours before dinner.
