Carrion de Los Condes to Moritinos

We went to the mass for the pilgrims last night that was an emotional experience. The nuns had the pilgrims come up after mass for a special blessing and gave each of us a star they had made. This town was one of the special places to remember.
Looking at the amount of days we have left we will need to cut out a few stages to get to Santiago by October 9th.
We met an English angel who just stopped by the albergue and hoped us with the remainder of the journey. We will walk to Sahagun tomorrow and take the train to Leon and then a bus to Astorga and then walk the remainder of the Camino. This is very upsetting to me but I know that we need to do it. I can always come back and give myself more time.
It was very cold when we started walking today. I think we will need to buy another layer of clothing in Leon. Not too much change in the countryside as you can see in the photos.

The town of Moratinos is a hobbit town with many earthen homes. See photos.

We went to a restaurant in one of the hills that didn’t look like much from the outside but was amazingly beautiful on the inside.

We had a funny thing happen to us today. A few days ago after Brenda got food poisoning, she purchased 4 cartons of yogurt and placed in the refrigerator of the hostel. She ate two of them and during the night the owners mother ate the other two. We have been unable to get any more and she really needs it. She asked the owner of this albergue for some and he said he would buy her some. On the way to the restaurant in the middle of the road was a carton of Greek yogurt, perfectly cold and not out of date. They say the camino provides!
Update; we had one of the best meals yet. Our hospitallers are Italian and really know how to cook. Our first course choose was bolanaise or pesto pasta; second course capraisie salad or pizza and dessert tiramisu. Sorry for spelling. We laughed and cried and had a wonderful time. We met our Asian Auckland friend Agnes, two French ladies and a Korean and with my phone translator we were able to communicte.
