Getting my head around walking

We spent the night in Avilés which is a really pretty town full of bars and restaurants but no veggie food for Fiona. The typical thing in Asturias is Sidra (cider) but the wine was very welcome after a bit of a frantic week.
I spent the first bit of the day drinking coffee and drawing the man cleaning the streets with a power hose whilst Fiona went to mass. Then we got a bus to Gijon. All very leisurely for a first day.
Gijon is lovely. Loads of 30s buildings, including the bus station, a port, golden beaches and lovely squares full of bar tables one of which had my name on it. Beer and kikos taste better here, so that was lunch. Then another bus to Villaviciosa from where the walking starts at dawn. Walking before 11 is much easier than after, and my body thinks it's in bed until 8am so any walking before that is even easier still.

There's an old town here, a couple of blocks,away so we are off to look around shortly. Tomorrow is a,nearly 30km day with hills by the looks of it. Trying not to think about it... (2 hrs later) We managed to find a huge plate of grilled vegetables and a really loud thunderstorm, so ready for whatever tomorrow has in store.もっと詳しく
