Santiago de Compostela to Luarca

We wake early this morning, we have to walk to the bus transit centre ready to head back to Luarca. We map our way, but, due to the narrow streets and tall buildings we are finding it very difficult. We are going down wrong streets then our app is rerouting us and in the end, I am feeling frustrated and worried that we are going to miss our bus! Thank goodness we left with extra time up our sleeve. We finally arrive at the bus terminal, Lisa goes to the toilet and our bus arrives before she gets back, I am still panicked from our walk here and start trying to ring her, she isn’t picking up, so I am looking in the direction she left to see if I can see her, there is no sign of her, then out of the corner of my eye I see her coming from a different direction, she had exited the transit centre via an alternate door and found her way back. I am relieved, knowing we will be on the bus soon and heading back to Luarca to continue our Camino. The trip back is shorter and less sickening, we are sticking to the main highways and we don’t have as many stops. We arrive back in Laurca just before 1pm, we enjoy a long boozy lunch and have a look around the town, we end up back at the main square, the sun is shining and the music is playing; Dire Straits - Money for nothing! We can’t help but sing along, enjoying the vibe and this day. We take a taxi to our accommodation for the night, it is on the outskirts of town in a rural setting consisting of corn fields and such. Lisa cooks dinner in our apartment and we go to bed early, eager to resume our walk in the morning.Read more
