    O'Porriño

    March 23 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    A windy night yesterday, the old windows in the farmhouse were rattling, and I was convinced we were going to wake up in Oz. We had a sleep in and departed at 8 am. It was hot, hot and hot today... no cloud and 29 Celsius. We walked through the beautifully empty streets of Valença and then crossed the bridge over the river into España. Stopping briefly at Tui cathedral for a stamp, we continued on until we reached the first hostelry at about midday Spanish time. Pliar decided to have a beer and was anyone's. We carried on for another few kilometres before we had to stop, so P could have a midday Inga. A short while later, refreshed, we continued onto O'Porriño and stopped at the nearest hotel. We negotiated the room down from 70 to 50€, before collapsing on the bed. Around 7 p.m., we donned our glad rags and headed into town. Stumbling across a fantastic little bar named Underground, we had a few drinks and the best pizza ever. All in all, a good day ;-)Read more
