Sunday addendum
And so now we have secured our bus tickets to Merida tomorrow morning to hopefully rent our car.
A few photos to try to capture the feeling in the plaza this afternoon as we have mixed emotions upon listening to the news.
Saturday, October 26th Casa Palacio Conde de la Corte
Here we are still in Zafra powerless, at least in bike terms. So the plan was to catch a bus at 1pm from Zafra BACK to Merida to rent a car, leaving our luggage at the hote here so we could return with car and pick up bikes and panniers and carry on. We waited at the bus station until after 2 to no avail, walked back to town to figure out the next option. Next bus was to leave at 4. Services on weekends are sketchy in countries that actually close and take time off. New plan: stay here until Monday, catch a bus and rent a car. The town is lovely. We changed hotels because the first one was booked for Saturday night as are most of them here. So now we are in a spacious room in a castle, Parador style and enjoying it all. Saturday night and everyone is out with families, kids playing in the plaza, parents sitting outside so we are fine and frankly enjoying the slower pace. Fingers crossed our plan for the car rental works tomorrow.
