Feudal food and second hand embarrassment

 It is a day of wide open spaces and a road we really ought to be walking down but Google says its ok so there we go - I’m sure streetview has our best interests at heart.


Today we have a few more words to fill in the blanks on the map.



Tramite - “Annoying bureaucratic stuff”—the many little tasks you must complete to get something done.



Verguenza ajena - second hand embarrassment. To be honest, I identify with this one.



Costarse - to be difficult / hard to do.




Estrenar - to wear something new for the first time.




We are going into one of those restaurants which exist on a road and seem to have collected a few buildings around it. El Asador de Inaki.  Wednesdays to Friday they open 6am to 8pm. The same of Sunday and Monday. Saturday you get to eat till 10pm.



849 people gave reviews and 4.2 stars were awarded. Six days ago Silvia said ‘A spectacular place!! It's like stepping back into feudal times, exquisite grilled food, and Eva's service is warm and friendly. 100% recommended 👏 We'll definitely be back.’



With that we will end the day.

A different rooster would crow

  We are pottering along at 91m but will be a mere two by the day’s end.   We are heading for San Vicente de la Barquera. It is one of those places, on a hostile coast, which provided a safer shelter.  As a consequence it got a castle. The place did the usual having Bronze Age chaps loafing about. The Romans made a small port.  It really got going when Alfonso I sent peoples to populate it in the 8th century. The castle was built, the town followed.  Things really got going in 1210 when Alfonso VIII gave the place a charter.  It got the same privileges as San Sebastian. Castro Urdiales, Santander and Laredo.  Along with Laredo, it has not prospered as much.  Fate was not kind.  From the mid 15th century, fires and plagues did not help.  When Charles I visited the town a bullfight was held in his honour.  He fell it at it and had to spend the night at the Convent of San Luis.  The town has a website.  https://aytosanvicente...

It's a shame the hooligans and the weather ruined some of the views

  We are heading south and cross the Mu-33 and wandering passed the Hospital Materno-Infantil Virgen de la Arrixaca.  We do not need to visit but who can resist a review?  https://www.murciasalud.es/seccion.php?idsec=347   I am always a bit wary of public institution being reviewed as people feel freer to vent.  It gets 3.4 stars.  About 45% are 5 star and 35% 1 star.  Google gives you four options - so here they are: Most relevant. 10 months ago. Mary -  Oncology department is 100% professional, kind and helpful. Pre anaesthesia clinic...receptionist needs some training in basic manners. The consultant on the other hand was 100% fantastic. Wish I'd made a note of his name to thank him. Newest. Gonzalo. A day ago. Five stars. Highest.  See Mary’s above. Lowest.  Three years ago.  Lorne  ‘Horrendous waiting times for simple things. Stay away from going here if you can!’ Time for  sit. La Taberna de la Tia Maria.  Two w...

In which we discover Coyotudo

The ability of people to review things which, when all is said and done, probably don’t need it must have an obscure survival value. We have new things, well, for us, to look at today. Welcome to the ‘Area de Descanso para peregrino’ The first adds the extra ‘de Villamarco;. Villamarco os about a kilometre to the south and has a cafe. The first first review, of what is a nice stone shelter, open to the elements and with a stone table and room for six to sit is by Coyotuco. It has a good table and benches made of slate slabs and is covered with a good roof, made of good tile, which protects very well from the sun and rain. There is not much room for many people at the same time. From here to the town of "VILLAMARCO", there is a beautiful walk, adorned with old agricultural machinery, which is very interesting to explore. It seems incredible how things have changed in just a few years. Aramaty was mildly less taken Only 4 points because the virgin that was stolen is missin...
