Miles walked per my watch: 6.75 (all in Logro\u00f1o)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flights of stairs climbed: 2. That might be actual stairs. Logro\u00f1o is pretty flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had a low key day. Went to the post office which is always fun. The post offices here are great. They are clearly there to help! We needed to mail a package to Burgos. Plus we had received a notice that the suitcase we mailed from Pamplona to Sahag\u00fan would be returned to sender if it wasn’t picked up by April 30. Well, we won’t get to Sahag\u00fan till May 6. We had told them May 6 (twice) when we mailed the suitcase in Pamplona but I guess that didn’t get communicated. So, we asked at the PO here what to do about this dilemma. It turned out that the Pamplona PO put down the Sahag\u00fan PO as our return address. So, I guess the Sahag\u00fan PO will send it to the Sahag\u00fan PO. The woman in the Logro\u00f1o PO this morning told me “tranquila”, not to worry. But it still makes me nervous; we will try to contact the Sahag\u00fan PO directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then we walked about a mile to the main train station to get a Tarjeta Dorado (Gold Card) which is a year pass for old people to get a big discount on train tickets. But, unfortunately, for some reason, the entire main ticket and information office in the train station was closed this morning, and only this morning. So … No Tarjeta Dorado (yet) for us. (We were too lazy to walk back there this afternoon.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then we walked to the cathedral. There is a Michaelangelo (attributed at least) behind the alter and I wanted to see that. But … The cathedral was closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We walked down Laurel Street, famous for its tapas. Seemed much more upscale than it was when we were here 13 years ago. We ended up coming home and making good sandwiches in our apartment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We did go out again and got to go into the cathedral this time. BUT, the light wasn’t working to show the Michaelangelo painting. It was enclosed in glass and there was so much glare you couldn’t see it without the inside light working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So … It was a bit of an off-kilter day. Charlie and I are eager to get back on the trail tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Correos: the post office. They are very modern and efficient and the employees work hard.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
