Camino Francés - Day 14: Burgos (Rest Day)
Even though it was a rest day, I still woke up early—my body was used to 6 a.m wake up. We had a big breakfast, watched TV, and listened to music until checkout. Tonight, we’re staying at a municipal albergue, so we headed there early to line up for a bed. There were already people waiting when we arrived!
After settling in, we walked about 2 km to Decathlon instead of taking the bus. I didn’t need anything but enjoyed browsing. Back in the city center, we visited the cathedral, had ice cream, and I picked up allergy meds from a pharmacy. We also discovered the Museum of Human Evolution offers free entry an hour before closing, so we waited and checked it out. The exhibits, featuring fossils from the Atapuerca dig site we had visited the day before, made for an interesting and educational visit.
