2022年9月19日, スペイン ⋅ 🌙 17 °C

Muxia to As Lires
2022年9月19日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
What a beautiful morning! I was told to expect a hill at the beginning, and the first hour was pretty much up! The trail started on the road, but went into the forest after a bit, still climbing.もっと詳しく
As Lires to Buxan
2022年9月19日, スペイン ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
I thought we were finished with hills but we were not. As the temperature climbed, so did we. Or at least lots of ups and downs. There was the ocean now and then, to get my hopes up. And a smallもっと詳しく
Buxan to Finisterre
2022年9月19日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

Camino Fisterre Day 6
2022年9月20日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
I had one small leg of this Camino to complete. But first, some photos of sunset and sunrise. It’s pretty cool that you can have an ocean view of both here.
Cabo Finisterre
2022年9月20日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
There are different spellings of Finisterre/ Fisterre. But the basic translation is Finis Terra - the end of earth, or end of the world. This has been an important place even before the pilgrimage ofもっと詳しく
To Santiago
2022年9月20日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Since I forgot to take a photo outside my pensión today, I am including a photo of their brochure. The bus 🚌 trip to Santiago was pleasant, stopping at small towns along the coast before turningもっと詳しく
Santiago de Compostela
2022年9月20日, スペイン ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
It took a few wrong turns before I found my albergue. Eventually I did. There are cute little pods for privacy, but not for noise reduction. I checked in, did laundry and went for a walk and to doもっと詳しく
Santiago to Porto
2022年9月21日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
My cosy pod. I had time for a café con leche and Tarte De Santiago before heading to the bus. We had a nice ride to Porto, and it was a short walk to the hostel.
Instead of settling in, I decidedもっと詳しく
Se do Porto (Cathedral)
2022年9月21日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
This is the traditional starting point of the Camino, going there today gives me a head start on walking tomorrow. Plus it is worth the tour. Lots to see, and many stairs to climb. This might requireもっと詳しく
Porto Cathedral Part 2
2022年9月21日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
I did climb to the top of the tower for incredible city views. And yes, I did get that stamp for my credencial.
Porto wandering
2022年9月21日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
When I left the cathedral, I walked over one of the bridges (there are several) over to Gaia, the port tasting area. I think the port was acting like a magnet 🧲🍷. I found a place Greg and I hadもっと詳しく

2022年9月22日, ポルトガル ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
I officially started Camino #2 today. But staying at the same hostel. So I had a very light bag today, and only walked about 12 km. Although that was before the walking tour I did this eveningもっと詳しく
Porto Touring
2022年9月22日, ポルトガル ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

Camino Portuguese Day 2
2022年9月23日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

Matosinhos to Angeiras
2022年9月23日, ポルトガル ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

Angeiras to Vila do Conde
2022年9月23日, ポルトガル ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
After coffee, I was back to the boardwalk. Most of the trail today was on this boardwalk, and the rest on cobblestone. Plus a short (thankfully) area where the sand had drifted over the trail. Thatもっと詳しく
Vila do Conde to Povoa de Varzim
2022年9月23日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
After lunch it was difficult to find the marked route, which was more direct to the town where I would stay. So again I meandered over to the ocean and just kept the water on my left. This took longerもっと詳しく
Camino Portuguese Day 3
2022年9月24日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
One of my roommates was asleep by 8:00 last night, and gone by 6:30. The other two were out past midnight and did not stir while I got ready. I found a café for a nutritious breakfast, and was on myもっと詳しく
Povoa de Varzim to Agucadoura
2022年9月24日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
I started along the water again today, and then along a maze of boardwalks.
The path was somewhat better marked today. At one spot there were 4 arrows all at once. To make up for the lack in otherもっと詳しく
Agucadoura to Fao
2022年9月24日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
After a coffee break it was back to the beach and the boardwalk. Eventually we were in a treed path, which was nice. There were even eucalyptus trees. Also, I walked past some gardens. The soil looksもっと詳しく
Camino Portuguese Day 4
2022年9月25日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C

Last night I walked to a local restaurant for a great meal. Simple but very good. I didn’t knowもっと詳しく
Fao to Esposende
2022年9月25日, ポルトガル ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

Castelo do Neiva to Anhas
2022年9月25日, ポルトガル ⋅ 🌙 17 °C
After leaving the Santiago church, I was grateful for a donativo rest stop. The man supplying the goods obviously took a lot of pride in his oasis.
