Sunday and free wine

Hi everyone we had a very relaxed night in the Albergue in Estella and set of on today's journey at 7.30am. Today was the day we would get to the free wine fountain. Well after a short stop for breakfast we walked the short 2Kto the fountain.  Even though you think that free wine would be heaven, drinking it out of a shell at 8am does not lead to a session. On we trudged, uphill as usual, for 8k until we reached yet another beautiful mountain village, must say the novelty of beautiful mountain villages is beginning to wear thin, where we met up with Maureen and Brendan for coffee.
It is a pity they are going home tomorrow. We will miss Maureen's smiling face and Brendan's craic.
After coffee we trudged uphill to Villamayor and when I say trudged that is exactly what it was. The weather this afternoon was quite warm for a change. From then until we reached Los Arcos it was flat  and very tiring. Anyway we eventually reached Los Arcos and have booked into a basic Albergue. When I say basic I mean basic but at least it's clean. Right, going now for the equivalent in Spain of Sunday dinner, so adios for now and we will talk later.
