    Monday June 5th!!!!

    June 5, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

    Today was another marvelous day in Santiago de Compostela! The weather was beautiful!! The highest temperature was about 26 degrees Celsius (78 degrees Fahrenheit). Today we wore shorts and sandals! We got Betsy up around 11am, got her ready for the day, had breakfast and were ready to take on Santiago around 1pm. We walked her around visiting some of our favorite shops. We then had lunch at a small cafe. Betsy/Rob had a small salad and I had a Spanish sandwich with Serrano ham and cheese. It was to die for!! After lunch, we put Betsy down for her nap! Around 7:30pm, we went down to our favorite Italian restaurant in Santiago. The restaurant is very close to the hotel so the walk was nice and the weather started to cool down a bit. For dinner, Betsy had pasta with eggplant and cheese, Rob had pasta with prawns and I had a seafood pasta. Ofcourse the meals were amazing following dessert. We kept saying that we were never leaving and decided to live here forever 😂 what made it so lovely was that the restaurant staff remember all of us from our previous trip which made it so special! After dinner, while walking to our hotel, we were greeted by some friends from the shell ceremony that happened in March! Robin and Ernesto stopped us and told us they remember Betsy and we talked for a bit. It’s really nice to run into some friends from home in another country. We then went back to the hotel and went to bed. Betsy’s Camino walk starts soon!! Just a few days left!!! We’re so excited!Read more
