We woke up this morning to sunshine! It was a beautiful day and we even took our coats off around mid-morning. So lucky to have this good day. Cacabelos was shining in the sun when we headed out. What a charming town. Wish we could have stayed there longer. The walk was beautiful through hills covered with vineyards. This is the El Bierzo region famous for its wine we are told – – perhaps you have heard of the El Bierzo wine? We went through a small village with many derelict houses but very charming. Then we came to vibrant Villafranca del Bierzo where we are staying tonight in the Hotel Posada Plaza Mayor. Every town has a Plaza Mayor which means “Main Plaza”. So we are right on the main square in the thick of things. The weather was so nice, we were able to walk around and explore the town.
Oh I’d love to stay in that white house on the hill for a few days!
Wasn’t that the neatest place. We couldn’t tell what it was. Didn’t seem to be anyone living there. But they sure had a nice location and beautiful trees.
