The walk to Ages ( a hess ) was 24 700 steps or 16 km.
We were high in the hills again today; up with the windmills, the communication towers and the heather. We walked with a Belgian man who has arthritis in his feet. Although he appeared to shuffle, he made pretty good time. Many people stop at San Juan de Ortega, St. John of the Nettles (?) but we chose to walk to Ages. Perhaps that was because Mary remembers San Juan and the fact there is nothing there except an old monastery that is being renovated. We continued on to Ages and stayed at a nice Alberge. Once again I wonder Why people are turning the lights out at 9:00.!!!
The town is small but there are several alberges and coffee bars. The church is old and has storks nests in the belfry. Pablo asked one of the residents about the storks and found out they arrive in northern Spain in January and leave around the feast of Santiago on July 25th.
