5/13 To Oliveira de Azeméis

The rain falls again,
Filling puddles on the trail.
Pilgrims slosh along.

I started out for another rainy day. I was carrying a bag of my wet laundry until I spotted a laundry mat. It's the cleanest laundry facility I've ever seen! I dried my clothes and carried on. There is a lot of road walking, as trucks and cars speed by. More amazing tile work in front of houses.This particular church offered oranges to pilgrims who stopped to collect their stamps. The landscape is continuously amazing. I'm exhausted each day, I barely get my pictures up, falling asleep as I write.
