I met Peggy from LA yesterday & she told me her husband Llyod who has a heart problem has to stay in a hospital in Burgos for 3 days. The Doctor told him he cannot walk like this every day. He rented a car, walks with her for a short distance, goes back to the car & meets her at their designated stop for the night. She was sad he could not walk with her but she's happy he can drive & continue with his Camino. I saw a red car stopped at Foncebadon & I knew it was her. So I was really happy to meet Lloyd Sutton. They are so sweet to each other. Because there is a cyclist marathon going on here, the albergues & hotels are full. Peggy had a reservation at the new La Casa del Peregrino in El Acebo. Her husband wanted to stay at a hotel so she saved one bed for me. When I got to El Acebo, I saw Michelin & Fernand from Quebec. She told me they are staying at the Albergue Parochial, a donation only & the hospitaleros are going to cook for the pilgrims. I liked the whole idea as it is something more quaint & intimate. So I checked in & went over to the Albergue to cancel.
