    Leg wrecker

    Today’s walk is known as the ‘leg wrecker’, which seemed an exaggeration considering how much climbing occurred the last 2 days. But that title was correct, due to the number and difficulty of climbs and descents all day. Making it worse was going in circles trying to find our way out of town. Compounded by heavy rain as we stepped outside the albergue. That heavy rain, turned into 3 hours of constant drizzle.
    So we where drenched, tired and had wrecked legs by the end of the day.

    The only positive being tonight in O Cadavo Baleira is we are staying in a really new, nice hostel. With, good wifi, partition between beds for a bit of privacy, good quality bunks that don’t squeak and sway as you climb up or turn at night and a good washer and dryer set up so we could wash all our clothes.
