Day 16: Fromista to Carrion de los Condes

Nice walk today. The time goes differently and the walking doesn't seem at all as hard. Got to Carrion. Went to stay with the nuns. Woke up with bites yesterday, not sure whether it was mozzies or chinches (bed bugs...ew) but we had to go through the rigmarole of putting every stitch of clothing into the washing machine, going down to the super for black bags and bug spray, putting the boots in one, the backpack in another and my clothes, after they had dried, in a third; spraying the crap out of them all with the spray before leaving them all tied up and out in the sun. Dose. Had a sing song with the nuns and the rest of the people in the hostel and then we went to Mass. Had a blessing after. Priest spoke very good English except for, "You can come up one by one and I will put my hands IN your head" :) Priceless.
