Morning cafe con leche at our Hotel and they gave us coffee cake for FREE!!

Morning sun coming up over the incredible city of Vigo. We will be back!!

This dog waited by the door of this business and would not enter. Waiting for his master

We were exhausted after a significant climb up a hill outside of Vigo

Hope this gives you a small flavour of going up the hills in Spain 🇪🇸 😰

But our efforts were rewarded with magnificent views of the Spanish coast 👀

Villages dotted the hills along the waterfront

Bolds colours are common in Spain 🇪🇸 including on their homes

Morning glories in the foreground and a large bridge in the background on a blue sky day

Have been seeing this Dutch couple almost every day and finally we walked with them today.

The large square objects in the water are for growing & harvesting mussels 🤤

Ann and Dutch friend walk amongst the shadows. Much needed break from the heat & sun

Octopus 🐙 called pulpo in Spain 🇪🇸 are a favourite dish

More uniquely decorated home here. In Spanish colours perhaps?

Train overpass which looks like it may have been part of an aqueduct years ago ?

Our Casa tonight. Beside a busy roadway but very charming

Our room with old stone walls. 2 beds; very romantic 💘

First Pilgrim dinner with 2 ladies from Holland. Both worked in Special Crimes as Detectives 🕵️ 🕵️

CP Day 11 to Cesantes

September 5 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

A 19 km day over 5 hours. What a walk out of Vigo. The problem with walking along the coast is that everywhere else you go is UPHILL. Boy did we go up and they were steep ups. But the views were just spectacular!!! Along the way, we ran into Wilbert and Henny, a lovely couple from the Netherlands. We first met them a week ago in one of our casas. We have run into them almost every day since then. Today we walked with them for a couple of hours and got to know them a little better.
Tonight we are staying in a private room in a lovely little albergue. We had our first communal dinner of the Camino here. We sat with 2 lively ladies from the Netherlands and a couple of men from France. And dinner was served early, 6 pm which makes for an early night for us tonight. And we are ready for itRead more
