\"Spanish <\/a> Spanish timber architecture <\/p>\n

 \"Tosca <\/a> Tosca rests a few hours at church entrance, opposite of albergue<\/p>\n

An hour ago I arrived in Itero de la Vega. Now I’m settled down at a bar \/ cafe with wifi. I’m alone here in the bar, of course with the television. I left the luggage in the open albergue where nobody was. Horse Leon got tied on a lush grassy field outside the village, behind a bus house a little off the wind, Tosca tied to the fence that closes the church entrance , opposite the entrance to the inn. As a true Cerberus ( how do you write that?). I hope there will be no evening mass. Maybe I’ll leave her there tonight. She then gets a big plastic bag covered with cardboard to lie on and she wears a jacket. Gradually I start finding her less pathetic. By day, she always has the greatest time of her life: all day hunting: pieces of carrion, mice hunting at the roadsides, chasing a hare, or getting tired  chasing a low flying raptor. Many Spanish dog would envy her. Her buttocks have already grown considerably, matching a female creature named Tosca. A mans eye wants something too.
\nAnd now, on with today. It was very cold today, but fortunately dry, a few drops once in a while. Leon walked beautifully, so , tied to a tree at the river, he has enough to eat. When last night I went to look at him before going to sleep, he whinnied wronged, because he couldn’t join me. So we are still growing together.<\/p>\n

Today was not very fascinating.<\/span> When this morning I went to pick up Leon , I saw that someone was lying nearby in his tent. He simply does what I don’t dare yet<\/span>. <\/span>And on the way, from time to time I came across pelegrino’s again. One pelegrino was an<\/span> iron one (see photo). <\/span>I talked a bit longer with one, until I found out that he was an Englishman. Then why are we trying to speak Spanish<\/span>? <\/span>He said he was camping mostly. <\/span>I really don’t feel like that , I said. <\/span>Unpacking everything, next morning when it still is dark, getting everything together and pack again, a dog that bites everywhere, and especially the cold. <\/span>If you keep on all clothes in your sleeping bag, it is not cold. <\/span>That made me a lot more relaxed. <\/span>That fuzz in those albergues with bans for dogs I am fed up with . <\/span>I now see that it does not harm my animals at all, to spend the night outside, with the care I offer Tosca and for Leon counts the same. <\/span>If it really has to be, then I’ll also camp. <\/span>But except that the pitch must be flat and a little sheltered, there must also be a tree with good grass around it, and it should not be boggy and preferably not stand out too much to passers by. <\/span>So a difficult combination of conditions.
\n <\/span>So, and now from the wifi bar back to the albergue. Let’s see if they let me in. <\/span>Because of the long day walks, I am more and more ahead of my schedule. <\/span>I can slow down, but besides that arriving very early in the afternoon is boring, then Tosca will be chained all afternoon and Leon will also be bored. <\/span>All three of us feel most comfortable when we are on our way.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Now it is a few hours later. <\/span>I went back from the wifi bar to albergue a few hours ago. <\/span>Now 1000 bombs and grenades, Captain Haddock of “Kuijfje” would say: inn door closed, all lights off. <\/span>And I had put everything inside: dog food, plastic bag and cardboard for Tosca to lie on, tent, everything. <\/span>What next? <\/span>Find another accommodation here? <\/span>Then I get those problems again about el perro (dog). <\/span>Oh, I wished I had <\/span>stayed with mother at home, oh, had not I … (Dutch song). There is another albergue. <\/span>Can I stay at your place with my perro? <\/span>You are welcome, but the perro, no. <\/span>Those who do not want my dog \u200b\u200bdon’t want me. <\/span>D\u00e8h da du doa ( that’s the way it is). <\/span>I returned to the inn where I had deposited my belongings in the hall. <\/span>Called the number on the inn door. <\/span>I can not get contact via my mobile phone. <\/span>Moreover, an SMS from my provider that there is a malfunction for the time being. <\/span>Do I have to wander around with Tosca all night? <\/span>Back to the beautiful bartender with wifi. <\/span>I explained her my problem in my best Spanish. <\/span>She calls for me: the landlady will soon be at your inn. <\/span>I stroke her hand , not having the guts to touch more of her and a few minutes later, when I arrive at the inn, I notice that I have been rescued. <\/span>And Tos? She<\/span> is allowed in the courtyard, because there is no one else . <\/span>Now I have a broad understanding of what is a courtyard, so Tosca gets it right again (smuggled inside). <\/span>I know it’s all just little things, but many of those little nuisances maak dich de pis lauw (cool down your piss, Limburg expression). I dr<\/span>ink my wine, another small beer for the thirst and then I pass the pipe to Maarten again ( I stop it). To bed early<\/span>, because tomorrow it will be more than 30 km.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
