Etapa 19: Caminha

The convent Alburgue required that everyone leave by 8:30, which was a bit earlier than usual for the Spanish brothers. But, we did get out in time and went to a nearby bakery for a breakfast and stamp.

Fran’s brother wanted to walk by himself today, so Fran and I spent most of the day together. The first of the day was along the the coastal boardwalk, and then we went up some truly challenging hills.

We had plans to meet up with Fran’s brother for lunch. As we approached the town, we met an older Portuguese man who we talked for a bit. He said that he worked as a photographer for a while and offered to take our picture above the town.

At the restaurant, we split several tapas among the 3 of us. As we were finishing up, Josè and Olraleigh met us and joined our table, and after that Frans other Brother Juan Pablo arrived as well from Madrid! So after dinner the 6 of us went to the Alburgue which had some really cool hand built bunk beds. They were also selling beers for €1 so I ended my evening on the porch with an Estrella Galicia and a sunset!Read more
