Day 36 - Barbadelo to Castromaior

It was a shame to have to leave last night's accommodation, but the show must go on! Today was a long 29kms. I took an alternate route, which Karen later told me, added 1km... darn it! I also officially passed the 1st pillar stating we were under 100kms!!🙌

I just walked and walked and walked today, only stopping for about 20mins ... such a silly thing to do really, as I'd only eaten a banana & a snickers bar! 😬... not good, I know! And to top it off, the restaurant near us served the usual unhealthy pilgrim crap tonight... so disappointing not to have a satisfying meal after a hard day's work!

We passed this one guy with 3 large dogs walking in the other direction. We had a 'chat' with my very limited spanish and Karen's french! These were large breed dogs that he carries food for and extra water. He said after losing his mum, his dogs are now his family, who he walks with day in, day out.

Today, I was in my head more and quite disconnected from my surroundings... not sure why... maybe the fact that there were more people and oh yeah - I see school kids... they're EVERYWHERE!! 😬

Tomorrow is a brand new day 🌞, I'm sure after I wake from a good night's sleep, I'll be raring to go again! But right now, I'm just really, really tired, so I'll keep it short and sweet 🌙Read more
