Day 24 - León

Today was relatively relaxing and constructive.  Up late. Slow breakfast in a nearby cafe. Then to the post office to try and sort an issue for Robin followed by the bank to try and sort an issue for Myra. A coffee in a rooftop bar and then an hour in the wonderful cathedral here, for me more beautiful - in a refined and subtle way - than its grander and more brash sister in Burgos. Pizza for lunch, shopping, getting caught in a massive downpour with hailstones just for good measure and then back to the hotel for a siesta. The evening was spent dodging the EUFA cup final (Real Madrid against Liverpool) - which it seemed appeared on television in all the bars in town - and then dodging celebrating Spaniards on the way back from the centre after having dined with an Australian couple who I had promised I would catch up with.

All in all a pleasant change from a long walk.
