    What a Day 😳

    4 de septiembre de 2022, Portugal ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    Ok guys I've had a shocker of a day but come through the other end unbowed !!! A lots of my own stubbornness , others well actually most of it my own stubbornness by maintaining I was able to stay by the coast all day , as my app showed and spent 2hours and 8 K proving myself wrong Then when I got back on track met incredible hills , technology letting me down ...
    To be blunt on a 31k day I ended up walking 37k nearly 50000 steps. I don't have any visual record of the day except for a few photo oh and my first Camino blister .

    On the good side having arrived at a brand new Albergue attached to an abbey on top of a big hill which has a funicular train and yes it has broken down and I had to walk 3k more up hill and not being sent the code to get in . I was let in by a Belgium couple who along with me are the only ones staying in this big Hostel . We even put our clothes together to share the cost of the laundry 6 € split 3 ways . Looks like a room to myself too suppose all's well that ends well !

    I'm also met some lovely people    Leer más

    Last night in Portugal

    5 de septiembre de 2022, Portugal ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    Well that was a good day. Started off very wet but walked through it thankfully my wet gear did the trick. It turned out a very long dad again but as they say the Camino makes you stronger . Lots of hills which are challenging but once you're up there ... Caminha is the place to catch the Ferry over to Spain . Guess what it's out of order so have to use one of the river taxis that'll interesting they don't hang about ! I've added some photos . My apps let me down again today so from now on I'm going to rely more on FB for videos and photos and use Penguin less as it does let me upload lots of the time and really pissed of with the route plotter so I'll try tomorrow and then
    Good Night all    Leer más

    Good Morning

    7 de septiembre de 2022, España ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    Having a rest day at Oia today. It was strange this morning watching everyone up and packing and on the road. Felt like I should be going too but in the last 6 days covered 174 K with around 160 approx to Santiago, unless I decide to do the Spiritual Veriant which adds not too many more miles but adds 1 day to the journey and involved another boat ride this time a couple of hours to Padron en route to Santiago, so seems a good chance to recharge . Nice group of Pilgrims last night it will be interesting to see who turns up at the albergue.

    BTW I've given up trying to post videos on the 🐧site so plan to use Facebook for videos now    Leer más

    7 de septiembre de 2022, España ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    Just sitting in the Camino Way through Oia having a lovely coffee and I have just been asked for by a group of Pilgrims the way to the Camino. I thought this was strange as I am surrounded by signs until I noticed that most of the group appeared to be blind or at least reduced vision. Everyday I feel very privileged to be having this experience.

    It's surprisingly difficult to just sit and watch when I have the urge to just walk    Leer más

    Todays Path

    8 de septiembre de 2022, España ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    I really enjoyed today's route and cheated a little bit where I knew the path climbed up in a forest for about 60 minutes only to return to the main path about 2k metres on so I just stayed on the coast and saved a little time and my feetLeer más
