After my first night in a hostel - thanks to my ear plugs I got a good night sleep in the room with 8 fellow pilgrims - I am getting up at 5.00 and am hiking towards Leon. My guide book says the way will take 5.5 hours, but I arrive I. Less than 4. Already in Mansilla de las Mulas the way is parallel to the national street and it seems after endless little suburbs I reach the city of Leon. As it is located somehow in a valley I can see the city from far already.
When crossing the Rio Torrio bridge I spot a flower arrangement showing 'Leon, 13.06.2016' shaped by flowers - that means someone has to rearrange the flowers each night - people are proud of their city and they should as it is a true diamanté of all cities along the Camino.
I am staying at the Plazza Mayor tonight and the sky greats me with "Kaiserwetter", wonderful blue.
