6 August 2015 Stage 15 & 16 by Taxi: Castrojeriz - Carrión de los Condes

Today me, Helen (Denmark) and a French woman took a Taxi to Carrión de los Condes. The taxi driver was so nice and even stopped in Frómista to show us the 1,000 year old roman church. Upon arriving in Carrión, I had a chamomile tea at the bar then walked to the hostel Santa María which was closed so then I started walking back towards the bar and hostal Espíritu Santo and just ran into Jacquelyne and Timi. We went to Espíritu Santo together. They are very strict here. It is very nice, however, and each room is named after a continent. We are in Africa. We went out to find shorts for Jacquelyne and a grocery store. There was a big and cheap street market with clothes, so she got bike shorts there. There was no fitting area so she just had to change behind a rack of clothes. Camino experience. I spent an hour of my siesta trying to figure out how to edit a contact on my new phone. Finally just asked 2 Spaniards in my room for help. When in doubt, ask a Spaniard.
