It may be interesting to note how much this visit to the doctor costs. Mary did make preparations before leaving home for medical contingencies. And she had with her medically related forms and papers necessary, just in case. So, how much did this cost?
Zero. $0.00 or 0€, if you prefer. So, what kind of forms or papers did she need to produce to get this cost down to zero? None. The kind people said they’ll charge it to Medicare, whatever that means. They didn’t ask her for anything. They didn’t charge anything. Maybe they just looked at her and thought this poor lady needs help; she’s clearly approaching 65 years of age… Ha!
The doctor did admonish her for not drinking enough water. Some things are the same the world over…
Doesn’t wine have water in it?

Mary took a 2€ bus ride to her next destination, Casa rural Mesón Las Rocas, Carr. Nacional VI, Vega de Valcarce, Spain. We can hope she resting peacefully and will be back on the trail before long. She plans two days of rest.
