    Féile na Bealtaine - happy May Day!

    May 1, 2021 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    1st of May. Summer is truly on the in.

    We hope the sun is shining down wherever you are.....

    We woke as fog was slowly rising of the sea under the morning sun...that mystic mist, what legends and stories are made of!

    Molly has kept up ancient celtic pagan Bealtaine tradition, washing her face (bathing in) the 1st of May morning dew.....and where better to carry out such a ritual then here in Galicia, with its many cultural ties to the celtic Irish (not to mention the west of Ireland-esque landscapes).

    For dinner we dined locally, not 50meters from the sea and but 5 mins walk from camp, on a Mero fish caught but hours before...mmmmmm tasty!

    A delicious last meal in Spain as tomorrow we hope to cross into Portugal because borders are officially open once more!!

    We will return to Northern Spain once things open up a bit more and we can truly experience their rich lively culture!
