Melide

I had a reasonably good rest and felt energized. The breakfast area was very busy with walkers and cyclists ready to hit the road and there was a lot of luggage for transfer in the lobby. Today is about 8 miles so I gave myself permission to be at the tail of the pack. A kind man pointed The Way out of town after I had taken in Melide’s main sights. I hadn’t realized there was a pilgrim museum as well but had missed its opening yesterday evening. This was a day of Mindful walking and I didn’t mind the intermittent showers. Rolling thunder kept me moving ahead from a very pleasant spot with a restaurant offering a pilgrim’s menu for €16. I reached my destination at 2 pm so took 6 hours with a couple of breaks in which I had a cake and some chips. Although the empanadas were enticing, yesterday’s meal worked out so well I held off.Läs mer
