Holy crap. To all those people who I´ve bragged to, saying that I don´t get sunburned, please know that I, in fact, do not posess this superhuman quality. My shoulders are burned to a crisp. Yikes!
So I prayed for sun and I sure got it. For some reason, I didn´t consider the idea of a sunburn when I hiked the rest of those 12 km from Villamayor to Los Arcos yesterday. I have the ugliest, most painful, red situation going on on my arms.
Well kids, today we are in Viana - a lovely little town with a nice, old church. (So?)
We were told the hostel was full, so we sought out a shitty hotel (no stars) and 35 Euros later, we get a room to ourselves with two beds. I can´t explain how nice it is to recharge your shiny, red iPod without the fear of someone stealing it. I mean, it´s still possible, but it´s not a room with 16 other people in it.
Today was a short (18 km) hike that felt very long. The blistering sun was at it all day, and as Becky puts it, ¨sun and hills don´t mix.¨
Running out of internet time! ´Til next time.

Hi Girls,
Reading your daily accounts is so enjoyable - You are truly having fun and building character - you'll never again have sympathy for someone complaining about little aches and pains- lots of new experiences - and food! We are having a miserably cool and rainy week!
Aunt Kathy - Take Care!
I love you more than anything! F-ing wine fountain!!! That's tits! We miss you, come home in one piece. We'll make sausages and mojitos on the (electric) BBQ monster.

Oh Jess! I hope it heals faster than the painful red situation you had down south a couple of months ago!
LOL Just kidding :-)
