• O Porrino

    May 24, 2024 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    Today, we woke up to a beautiful morning. We met a nice group of 8 people at our hotel who are traveling together. They are from Ireland,
    Australia and Scotland. Which included three sisters all over the age of seventy! Amazing!
    On our track, we came across a man playing bagpipes. It was kind of nice to hear the music in the rural area. We stopped in a couple of little cafes along the way and had some espresso and water and sometimes a cookie. At those times, you sit and talk with other walkers and hear about their adventures on the road. We walked by some beautiful streams and small rivers. And over some bridges. We arrived at O Perino around 2:00. We found our hotel and took a quick nap 😴.. For some reason, today we both felt really tired when we got here. After our short nap, we found a really nice restaurant and had lunch. It was delicious. I even had a couple of beers and an espresso! I guess I needed an awake buzz. We walked around the town and came across Calle de Antonio Palacios. It was breathtaking. In Spain, everything closes down from 4 to 6 for siesta.. It's really weird. So we decided to go back to our hotel and take our own siesta. We woke up, took showers, and had dinner at our hotel. We are now preparing for our longest journey tomorrow, which will be almost fifteen miles.
    Buenos noches!
