Dag 10
Pontevedra
6 oktober 2023, Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
Today was a pretty serious 14 mile hike compared to other days. There were lots of ups & downs through pastoral Spanish country, as well as another trek through a deep forest. The journey ended in the aisles of an Aldi in the famous city of Pontevedra. PV is a cool city known for its pedestrianization & urban planning. There’s more of a “big city” feel here with different types of cultural restaurants & fancy boutique shops, although we’ll probably need to determine if the beer tastes the same.Läs mer

Caldas de Reis
7 oktober 2023, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F
Today was a pleasant 14 mile walk through grape vineyards & farmlands to Caldas De Reis (which roughly translates to ‘hot springs of the kings’). We snagged grapes along the way, ate giant bocadillos de jamón for breakfast & when it got really hot, we stopped at an ice-cream truck which was parked on the side of the camino. We booked another Spanish lady’s apartment which is super clean & started some laundry as soon as we arrived. No more washing undies in the sink for these pilgrims.Läs mer

Padrón
8 oktober 2023, Spanien ⋅ 🌙 59 °F
Today was 12 miles through Spanish countryside with a few more churches & pastoral scenes along the way. We arrived in the city of Padrón during a large flea market with everything from churros to designer jeans. Tonight we’re staying in somewhat of an upscale hotel called la corona de Padrón or “the crown of Padrón”. Tomorrow is our final walking day!Läs mer

Dag 13
Santiago de Compostela
9 oktober 2023, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 59 °F
Today we got a late start & I blame it on the hotel breakfast (which we mistakenly thought was free). Around 17 miles later we made our way up the main street of Santiago de Compostela, sweating & weaving through college kids…to the main cathedral. Hundreds of smelly pilgrims from around the world were relaxing in the shady areas & basking in their achievement. We took a few pictures, then made our way to the pilgrim’s reception office where they checked our stamp book, confirmed our legitimacy & gave us our certificates. It took 175~ miles, a few blisters & a swollen ankle, but we’ve completed the Camino & we are celebrating with a few big beers 🍺.Läs mer

Porto (round 2)
11 oktober 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 73 °F
Back in Porto, but this time with an air of superiority since we’re now seasoned pilgrims. After visiting the McDonalds (which was surprisingly regal) we weaved through thousands of Spanish tourists & made our way to the famous wine cellars of Cálem. We took a tour of the cellars & learned about port wine, the regional significance, then we drank the wine. Then we walked about 3 miles up steep hills in direct sunlight. After a shower & shave we’ll be ready for a fancy dinner with Uncle Jeff.Läs mer

Resenär That’s one swanky McDonald’s. I’ll bet their ice cream machine was even working.
