Last night we had an awesome meal as a group in a weird round house across the street from our albergue. It was so fabulous.. Great food, vegetarian option(yay) and sweet company. Everyone introduced themselves, where they were from and when and where they started their walk.
We left our albergue this morning as our fab group of four, stopped for a coffee and French toast breakfast.. Yum!! That was a lovely surprise spot. Then dropped Kathleen off in triacastela after a few more kms. We miss you already. Then we went the wrong way.. Turned around went back and took the right way. Walked and walke and walked.. Up and down. I guess we didn't really realize how far we had to go
Beautiful scenery- farmlands, forests, mountains, some lovely tree sheltered paths. A few too many farmyards.. stinky. Not many pilgrims on the route today it seemed..
Creatures.. Snake, earthworms, slugs on steroids, roosters, sheep and goats on the path too. Everything here is "free range" so to speak.
We have been walking a little bit longer than our daily guide these last few days. Booked our accommodation for santiago.. A nice pension with private room- yippee!
Mom was stoked about her salad for lunch.. I am stoked about a vegetarian dinner tonight! We have been researching places to stay since the trail gets really busy these last 100kms. Found some sweet spots.. Today is great!! Lovely outdoor garden area to hang out and nice clean accommodation. However.. I think in a week we will have had enough of living out of a backpack.
Looking forward to seeing our island people.. Adios from San mamede
looks like a pretty gorgeous dining hall. Was that the first time you've gotten lost? not bad considering. XO
