Day 1: Climbing to the monestary

The train arrived in Leon with just enough time to see the cathedral before our meeting and departure. We drove to O Cebriero where we had our first opportunity to walk...just under 3 miles, all up hill. The view was spectacular but the cold rain made the climb challenging. At the top we reached our accommodations in a former monastery for the night. There was a Pilgrim's mass and incredible meal. Rain again tomorrow but hopefully I will get some photos to share. We begin at 9:15 with a slight climb up the mountain and then we begin our decent.
