    On our way to Pontevedra

    26 maj 2024, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    Our hotel Duarte had our breakfast all prepared at our own table this morning. It was a nice way to start the day. There were at least 24 Camino Walkers staying at the same hotel as us, and we all started off around the same time. It was a very beautiful walk today with some surprises along the way. The first Surprise happened as we were hiking up a very steep rocky trail. About 5 men on bikes rode down the same trail we were on. I could not believe they were riding bikes down this trail. I considered them daredevils. The next surprise was a man on a white horse coming up the same trail. It amazed me how sure-footed the horse was walking on all these rocks and small boulders.
    As we were walking along, we met a woman from Canada named Teri Lee. It turns out she is staying at the same hotel that we were headed for, so we decided to walk together. When we got to our hotel, our luggage wasn't there yet. So we went upstairs and rested until our luggage came. We took showers and met Teri and her friend for a walk through old town. We took more pictures. Michelle and I were getting very hungry, so we stopped at a small restaurant called. Natas D'ouro. The food was good and of course I had my daily cerveza.
    Then we walked through the amazing Sanctuary of the Pilgrim Virgin (pictures). Also, the 14th-century convent of San Francisco. (Pictures).
    Today was another amazing day! I'm looking forward to our walk tomorrow, which will be about fourteen miles.    Läs mer

    Hotel Via XIX in Caldas de Reis

    27 maj 2024, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    We were on the road from Pontevedra by 8:15am.
    The walk was good, even though long. We didn't have any big inclines today. Whew!
    We stopped twice to eat rest and have a beer with Camino friends it was nice. We had 3 young military men jog by us today, and michelle could hardly contain herself.
    Like I said before, you never know what you're going to encounter on the camino. As we work our way closer to Compostella,
    We are starting to see more people stop on the side of the trail. Adjusting something on their backpacks, changing their socks, taking a drink of water, rubbing their feet, some people limping, etc..
    But one thing everyone has in common. They continue to move forward💙💪
    I hope everyone enjoys today's pictures😊    Läs mer

    Caldas de reis -> Lestrobe

    28 maj 2024, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

    We left our hotel. Via XIX by 8:15 am. The weather was perfect most of the day, then started to warm up later on. We made 2 and a 1/2 stops along the way. We were only supposed to walk about twelve miles to our next destination. However, Michelle typed in tomorrow's destination in Google maps by mistake, and we ended up walking almost 4 miles past our stopping point.😳
    We realized the mistake and called a taxi to get us back to Casa Antiga do Monte.
    We were both wondering why we were so tired. On top of that, the front of my ankle was a little swollen and was in pain for about the last 8 miles..
    The place we are staying is a private resident and is absolutely beautiful.
    We both had hot showers and a home cooked meal. And now we're relaxing, and I put ice on my ankle. all as well. Time for bed!!    Läs mer

    Pardon -> O Sisto

    29 maj 2024, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    We were on the road by 9:15 am.
    We only had to walk about 8 miles to Casa Rural A Casa Villa da Rivera in O Sisto.
    The walk was easy today.
    We got to our destination around 12:30 pm. I took a short nap while Michelle took a shower. After I took my shower, I went downstairs and sat outside on the patio, had a couple of beers, and chatted with 3 ladies from Australia. Then went back upstairs and Michelle. And I both rested until dinner time. The young lady who checked us in happened to be from China also. She was so happy to be able to chat with Michelle in their language. It was cute to watch how excited she was. She and her husband got married about 5 years ago and live here. He is from Santiago. They make a really cute couple. Michelle and she lived in the same Providence. About 1 hour from each other. It was fun watching them discover this.
    The pictures we took today were quite random. A little bit of everything.
    It was another good day.    Läs mer

    O Sisto -> Santiago de Compostella

    30 maj 2024, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    Today, we woke up to a mildly, cloudy day, and we're very happy about that. We didn't want to have to walk in the heat on the last portion of our walk to Compostella. After a fabulous breakfast this by our hosts. We set off to Compostella.
    There were about 12 other Camino walkers around the table, and all we talked about was our last day to get to compostella. We're all very excited.
    The walk was wonderful, and there were pretty sights. And some odd little things that I took pictures of. When we entered compostella, where the cathedral was located in the town square, we were in awe.. There is nothing to describe the feeling we had spiritually and of what we accomplished in the last fourteen days. We went to our hotel and took showers. Went back out to the town square and walked through all the shops. We stopped and had dinner, which was very good, and we went to a mass in the cathedral itself. All I can say is, Wow! We walked a total of 14.5 miles today.    Läs mer

    Compostella and beyond

    31 maj 2024, Spanien ⋅ 🌙 15 °C

    WOW! We woke up and didn't have to walk anywhere 🙃
    It felt very strange.
    We did, however, book ourselves an excursion.
    Fisterray y Costa da Morte. The End of the Word.
    We visited: Pontemaceira, Muxia, Faro and Fisterra Village, The Ezaro Waterfall, The Carnota Horreo, and The Village of Muros. The coast was absolutely breathtaking..
    Our guide told us we were having a unique wind event today with fifty to sixty mile an hour wind.
    When we got back to compostella, Town Square Michelle and I checked in to our next hotel. We rested a bit and then went for a walk to get dinner at about 8:30 p.
    m.
    We ran into our Australian friends and bid them farewell for the last time.
    I would just like to mention that from our window in our hotel room, We can see the Cathedral. We are about a five minute walk from that area. We leave tomorrow at five fifteen p.m. on a bus to Lisbon Where we will stay for 3 more days, then we will take a train on to porto and stay two days. Portugal is so beautiful. I can't wait to get back there.    Läs mer

    Bus trip to Lisbon and more..

    3 juni 2024, Portugal ⋅ 🌙 19 °C

    We traveled to Lisbon Portugal by bus. It took us most of the day we arrived at 1:30 AM on the 2nd of June.. There were no taxis to be found at that time of the morning, so we googled our hotel and began to walk with our luggage dragging behind us. We walked through dark allies and unfamiliar territory. However, we laughed most of the way. We found our hotel quite easily. We are in a real hotel this time. Ha! Ha!
    We are located on the 10th floor and are very comfortable, with a beautiful view of the city of Lisbon. We got to sleep in this morning and then took a taxi to Old Town. Apparently, that's the place to be. We ate lunch, which we enjoyed very much. And then we did a little shopping. We stopped by another beautiful church and again took lots of pictures.
    Then we moved on to St. George's castle, Castel de Sao Jorge, was built by kings of portugal, most notably Ferdinand l.
    Since the 12th century, the castle has variously served as a royal place, a military barracks, home of the Tombo National Archive, and now as a national monument and museum. It was amazingly magical.
    This evening, we took an unexpected sunset cruise. They served beer and wine and had some really good music on the whole time we were cruising. And it was absolutely wonderful.
    Today was a good day!    Läs mer

    Porto

    5 juni 2024, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Today, we hired a tuk tuk tour of the city of Porto.
    After the tuk tuk tour, We headed out on foot. We walked to a very famous bookstore that we actually had to purchase tickets in advance just to go in.
    Librarian Lello is the name of the bookstore, but the locals call it the Harry Potter bookstore. It turns out that J.K. Rawlings,the creator of the Harry Potter book series, lived in porto for one and a half years, where she taught english and also got her inspiration for the Harry Potter book series from the streets and places in Porto.
    As a matter of fact, we visited the Porto train station, where some scenes from the first Harry Potter movie were filmed.
    After a very good lunch, we took a boat tour on the Dovro River. we saw some beautiful bridges and buildings along the shoreline..
    Then, We were off to do some last-minute shopping before we returned to our hotel by 7:45!
    It was another very busy day.
    Boa noite!    Läs mer
