Sep 4, 2006 - Lounging around in Leon

Took the night train from Barcelona to Leon last night, a pleasant 11 hour journey in a fancy sleeper! Actually, it wasn't that fancy as there were 6 of us in the cabin (same configuration as Indian trains - except in India there are 8 berths crammed in instead of 6), but it was certainly more comfy than sitting in a chair all night long.Took the night train from Barcelona to Leon last night, a pleasant 11 hour journey in a fancy sleeper!

May 29, 2006 - Shahagún to León (Day 15 Starting to get out of the mesetas, sort of...)

Spent a lovely night in the solid bunk beds of the albergue in Shahagún. So we caught the bus and are now in León. ... Glad we didn't do the walk into the city as it was sometimes on the highway or just next to it and it looked like a long stretch.Spent a lovely night in the solid bunk beds of the albergue in Shahagún.
