I don't know what these knobby trees are.

I hope you aren't tired of the tree pics.

Could this be an upcycled mill stone in this wall?

Angela makes friends everywhere she goes. This doggo reminded me of our Rex.

These are common in the farm villages. Hórreos are granaries specific to this part of Spain.

Portomarín looks over the beautiful Rio Miño. This is the view from across the river.

About to cross the river. Both hats I brought were sacrificed in the bed bug battle.

Walk 14 miles and then encounter this?! Made it up, no problems!

Looking back over that staircase and the river. Very peaceful.

Another great day! I can’t believe how lucky I’ve been with the weather. Lots of uphill today and then down for about the last third. There are SO many more people on the Camino today! It’s a very different vibe than the solitude of the mountains the last few days.

We stopped at about 10 miles at a bougie-looking albergue. I had attempted to make an online reservation for this place with no response. When we got there today it was full, so we carried on to Portomarín. It might be nice, crowd-wise, to be stopping at places other than the official (guidebook) stage ends, but today was not the day for that to happen. We are ahead of my tentative schedule; I’m feeling stronger than I thought I might at this point and tomorrow is another TBD day.Læs mere
