• Day 40 - Melide to As Quintas

    July 31, 2025 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    We started the day with a breakfast of churros and chocolate along with our usual café con leche. The walk today was mostly beautiful nature but fairly unremarkable. We did stop at one river to soak our feet.

    While we were soaking in the river a group of guarda civil was nearby giving out sellos and doing some community policing. They were assisted by French and Italian officers who come to Spain in the summer to assist along the Camino.

    We're staying in a smaller albergue tonight that only hosts up to 10 people and has a communal dinner. There's no bar nearby so we have snacked on our leftover pizza and pack of nuts and dried fruit. Only a day and a half left, but the emergency rations are gone until we pass by a store.

    With no bar or other attractions to see, we're relaxing in the shady large yard with the chicken and cats.
