Today we are real tourists and this is a rest day. After walking into Leon, we ran into a supermercado where we bought some nice strawberries and bananas. We ate them on a bench near the store. After finding the cathedral we went to our hotel which was 2 minutes away. It was very nice and very reasonable at €29.
Our next stop was a tour of Leon Cathedral which is a highlight of the Camino. It was built in the 13th century in a very short time, just 50 years. The details of the wood and stone artistry were so impressive.
Then it was off to deal with the mundane, buy moleskin and lunch
After a rest we went for a little walk through the downtown area which got us to the Basilica San Isadoro. We went in and attended mass.
Very nice :)
