A short day today on roads and some country paths, trying to avoid the midday sun. The temperature today was supposed to reach 40C! We had stocked up extra water just in case. Some walkers who arrived a couple of hours after us reported a fire on the side of a mountain, with four helicopters dropping water. Glad we missed that.
This afternoon in the Albergue, which already houses 24 "pilgrims", the heat is unbearable. Don't know if we will get any sleep tonight! Tomorrow the temperature is forecast to rise again. Ouch!
Phil and I have been watching the temperature as we've followed your route Robert and Ana......man, it's hot!! I remember the particular hell of trying to sleep in overcrowded, overheated albergues, not fun!!!
