Dear Room 9
We have reached Ponferrada which means we have walked about 170km. It is still a long way to go and it has been raining and raining and raining. We slept last night in a little auberge (pilgrim´s hostel ) way up high in the mountains. There was mist swirling around, wild cats and kittens and little goats reaching up to nibble fruit off the trees - remember it is autumn, - and we had dinner and slept beautifully.
This morning we climbed up to the highest point on the camino and then as the rain began to pour and pour we headed down off the mountain and were very pleased to find a little cafe where we could have cafe con leche - milk coffee and a bocadillo - a long fresh bread roll with an omelette inside. Yum! We walked on and on and on and finally came to Ponferrado. There is an ancient castle here that I want to explore.
I loved your questions but the money has run out on this computer. It is much better than using my iphone.
Take care everyone
Love from Mrs Wright x x x

boy 170kms! What a shame it is raining. We love hearing about your trip. Our clown unit is coming along nicely and we are all looking forward to our dress up day with our lovely masks we have made. juggling has been tricky and only some of us can do it with 2 balls. Tomorrow we are going to preform our acts, jokes and juggling like a real circus clown show. Take care Mrs Wright and Mr Wright. Enjoy the rest of your travels and we will see you next term.
