Today, we left Nájera at 6:30 a.m., since nowhere was open for
desayuno, yet. We stopped a few hours
later is Azorfa for toast, coffee
and juice, and walked on until we arrived in Santo Domingo a little after noon.
We found a reasonably-priced 3-star hotel, El Corregidor, right on the Pilgrim’s route, Praise God! Lunch didn’t start until 1:30 p.m., so we
showered, did hand laundry, hung it out to dry, and had lunch in the hotel
restaurant, Alleluia! Between the two of
us, we finished a bottle of local wine!
We followed this by a nap in our room.
Afterwards, we toured the cathedral and museum, and walked up the tower.
We went to Mass,
bought bread, cheese, ham and fruit, and ate in our room tonight.
Santo Domingo is named after the saint
who was instrumental in building roads, bridges and hospitals for the pilgrims
on their way to Santiago! Santo Domingo,
ruega por nosotros!
