Day 8 Logrono to Najera

Day 8 Logrono to Najera
Continuing through the La Rioja region today we walked from Logrono to Najera. As we're still in a wine production region the wine was still delicious, plentiful and affordable. The heat continued today, already baking hot when we woke up in the morning.  Setting out the guidebook says that you walk through wetlands, which seemed weird when all we had seen was wheat and vineyards on the way in but about 5km out of town we came up over a rise and there was a giant lake! Today we also encountered animals who were more annoyed by the coffee shop being closed than I was, discuss the best kind of candy to carry through hot weather for desperate times and brutalize the pronunciation of Najera (sorry!!). Useful Links from this episode are below, if your podcast app does not let you access them directly head on over to https://isthistheway.net . Hostal Hispano (booking.com)Where we stayed in Najera. This hotel is located across the river from the old town, but it's only a few minutes walk across the bridge to be sitting in the square or at a restaurant.  Good value compared to those located in the old town. Friendly staff and clean rooms.  Ask for something on the 2nd floor or above as a few rooms (like ours) on the first floor have street lights right outside the window that make it hard to sleep.  Otherwise it was a great little place!
