Camino Rule #1

The last kilometer is always uphill!

We walked 22k today to the small hilltop city of Melide. We dragged ourselvesup the last kilometer. To our Pension, which is run by a Hotel next door. On check-in, we were told we are upgraded to a hotel room! Score!!!

We are about 52k from Santiago. 3 more days walking. We will split it over 3 walking days, all under 20k. We will arrive in Santiago next Wednesday, Nov 2nd!

We have heard the city and Cathedral will be crowded on Nov 1st, All Saints Day, so Wednesday is good with us!

We saw our first grove of Eucalyptus Trees today.Read more
