Burgos

Today is a planned rest day. It is also Linda’s 80th birthday!

We began the day by sleeping in. Next, we had a leisurely breakfast at one of the few cafes open in this city of 200,000 people on a Monday morning at 9:30!!

While this cafe specialized in sweets such as churros, we opted for just plain toast, which. was fresh and soft. The large, hot cafe con leche was also welcome on this cool (49F) late May morning.

On the walk back to our room, we stopped by two different ATM’s to replenish our stash of €€€, to carry us through to Leon.

Back at our room, we continued enjoying the day off and leisurely reading, blogging and napping.

Walking by the Catedral as we scouted out potential lunch spots.

At 2:00 we walked to a nearby restaurant and had our main and probably only meal.

Linda didn’t care for her soup, so she moved on to her next course of chicken with lemon sauce.
We also split an order of calamari. The chicken and calamari were good.
And Jim had a pepperoni and peppers pizza.

We wrapped up the dessert and carried it back to our room.

Birthday cake, a la Camino, for Linda!

  3. Congratulations and Happy Birthday. Not everyone gets to 80. I’m glad you and Jim are feeling better. You both look good. As far as I know all is well here. DAVE
