Day 7 Sleeping Arrangements

I reached the hamlet of Zariquiegui around 2:30 pm. While 2 pm might seem like a short day, it's when the race for a bed has already begun. This tiny town (population is under 200) has two alburques. The first I went to was already full, but I found a bed at La Posada de Ardogi, the other alburque. My bed is the bottom one. The room holds 8 beds, and there are other rooms. There were 21 peregrinos at dinner. There are only 2 showers and 2 toilets. Each shower is in its own stall but they're in the same room, so it was a little awkward when I was showering at the same time as some lady.

The church in this hamlet shows up in the movie The Way. The character Sarah is sitting on the wall when Tom and Joost meet up with her.

Tomorrow I should be walking past the windmills and the ”skinny sculptures” on Alto de Perdón.
