Santo Domingo de la Caldaza to Belorado

Miles walked 14.32
Steps taken 38,321
Stops made one in every little town we walked through.  It was nice to see the church steeple and know we were heading towards a cafe or a park bench to rest.  We had 5k to start, the a town, then a new town every 3-4k.  Then 5k at the end with our final destination in mind.  Belorado was hidden until the very last minute - I was almost worried that we would never stop walking to get there.  
Coffees consumed 2 average coffees.  It was so cold today, it was worth the subpar coffee just for the warmth.  
A warm welcome for pilgrims Our hostel is in a historic and beautiful building.  Hannah, the host, was so kind and helpful at check in.  She offered laundry service - wash AND dry! - for 8 Euros.  You better believe I took advantage of that offer.  I've deduced that she lives in the building in an apartment and used her very own washer and dryer to wash my clothes.  When I dropped my basket of clothes off, she said, "Thank you for trusting me with your clothes." She's adorable.

Emma said the picture below looks like the Windows welcome screen. 
Burgos is our next big city for a rest day.  Should take us about three days to get there.
Check out the birds' nests at the top of the church steeple.
