Day 4 Viana de Castela to Caminha 30.9k

Great start as I didn't have breakfast... or coffee for that matter.

Beautiful walking in the am as it is cool and refreshing Spring flowers are popping up... Like poppies( one of my favorites)

Had a tostada for breakfast Jan ( the polish guy who is near deaf and blind) was there. We ended up walking together to Caminha.

I don't know how he manages.... He never books accomodations and does not navigate at all on any GPS app. I basically steered him in the right direction although my sense of direction isn't great either even with All Trails app🤣😂🤣

He took a bad fall at one point on slippery cobblestones🥴

But managed to keep going. Very determined!!

So.... I learned something important yesterday..... I am thinking they measure distances between points from the church in each town..... Because I couldn't figure out why my distance was so huge when I was expecting 26km.... The church was4 km from where I started. Yikes!!! I won't lie.... The last couple of kms felt like a marathon.

Of course Jan had no reservation I did.... He wanted to go to the
Municipal hostel and it was further than mine. He ended up staying at my hostel as there was 1 bed available.

Delicious home cooked pasta, ( with zucchini, beans, greens) salad and bread for supper🤗🥳

Oh yes and the hostel has a beautiful garden and Epsom salts foot bath!!!

I decided to stay another night
Rest Day tomorrow💕💕😉👍Read more
