Day 11: Rain into Ponferrada

After a very restful night we walked down into Ponferrada in the rain. At this point 16km feels pretty much like a breeze. The rainy descent wasn't bad at all. Stopped for cafe con leche in lovely village/suburb, Molinseca. Got excited to explore the castle in Ponferrada. It was HQ for the Knights of the Templar in the 12th century. Ponferrada is small, modern city and we've got a recommendation for a good dinner spot.
