To Zamora 32 km Stage 18

September 30
A long day and the fog not lifting until 12:30pm. At 11am we arrived in the village of Villanueva (13km) and after a few tapas we decided to move onto Zamora, another 19km. The afternoon terrain was flat going through fields of wheat and sunflowers, and a few vineyards. A few kilometres before Zamora we met William, a Spanish peregrino who was on a 5-day trek. Since work was slow he was able to take the time off. We have met a few other Spanish peregrinos doing short treks along Via de la Plata.

We were so glad to eventually reach today's destination and enjoyed an ice cream as we entered the town. Zamora is a nice little town with many historical sites and trendy restaurants. We wished we could spend another day but not possible due time constraints.
