Favourite breakfast of churros, cafe con leche and OJ, got buses to Ponferrada and Carucedo and flagged a lift down to Orellan. Fascinating scenery from ancient roman gold mines and even went through one with hard hat and two torches.
Authentic Spanish dinner at the B&B.Leia mais

8 de junho de 2018, Espanha ⋅ 16 °C
Rainy day for 1.5hour bus to the ancient roman town of Lugo. Even in the rain it was a classy old town with pale grey stone and white frames. Walked the old roman walls round the town, enjoyed the shops and made a poor dinner choice of pilgrims menu. But my 5th floor hotel room was lovely so had a good sleep in preparation for the coming camino.Leia mais

9 de junho de 2018, Espanha ⋅ 19 °C
Decided to break the “no breakfast” tradition and took the 4 star hotel breakfast. Meet Mandy from Perth whose camino I had been following who was now travelling with her husband so I put them onto Las Medulas. Enjoyed the fine morning in Lugo with the excellent free Municipal Museum - Picasso, Chagall, Miro, Velasque, whole corridor of sundials, mosaics and paintings by modern spanish artists ( many from Pontevedra).
Quick bus trip to Sarria where i met Lynn and Sabine from Brisbane. I was staying on the edge of the modern town but once going up the steep steps to the main street, it was a surprisingly nice place. Met the Brisbane girls for dinner up there and enjoyed grilled veges and pollo a la plancha.Leia mais

10 de junho de 2018, Espanha ⋅ 19 °C
Set off before 8am back up through the old town. Scenery was really pretty through lush green forests. Stopped for coffee, then a queso cheese and honey pancake from a woman who had set up a donation box at her front gate. When she opened the honey pot there was a live bee swimming round in it. Walked most of day with surfing couple from Phillip Island before i stopped a couple of kms out of Portomarin for a spinch, cheese mountain bread. Casa do Maestro was lovely, so sat round, looked at the two churches, then nice Pilgrims Menu dinner of squid stew, beef stew with salad and Santiago Pie for dessert.Leia mais

11 de junho de 2018, Espanha ⋅ 18 °C
Enjoyed plentiful included breakfast, left bag at reception and hit the road just after 8am. Again lush chestnut forests with the highlight being the little visited roman ruins at Castromaior. Drizzle started round noon so not ideal but plodded on stopping for a potato tortilla and arriving at Casa Calixtino which has since been invaded by a horde of spaniards so i fear disturbed sleep. Menu dinner was tuna salad, big chunk of merluza and flan.Leia mais

12 June Casa Calixtino to Casa Blanca
12 de junho de 2018, Espanha ⋅ 13 °C
Happy to leave the spanish groups behind and walk with 3 irish and one english woman stopping for food/beer every 3kms till my turnoff at Casa Nova ( or we’re looking for casanova as it became). No one else out, no rain and lush green forests, cute tiny villages and tavernas. Parted ways at sign to Casa Blanca which was 1.3 kms off the camino. Walked a further 4kms return to Castle Pambre alongside a river, through oak and chestnut forests.
Dinner was much more upmarket - salad of greens, bacon, blue cheese, walnuts, then beef cheek and quince paste with cheese ice cream. Anticipate a quiet nights sleep.Leia mais

13 June To Melide
13 de junho de 2018, Espanha ⋅ 11 °C
Casa Blanca breakfast was very upmarket then i retraced my steps the 1.3km back to the camino. There were some nice forest stretches and little village churches but some next to busy highway and through light industry.
Final approach to Melide through Founelos and its old stone bridge over a bubbling river was beautiful. My pension looked rather ordinary outside but was new and quiet inside. Lunched on octopus at the famous Ezequiel Restaurant and was not disappointed. Long communal benches in a big space were packed. Sat with Argentinian spanish couple. Waiter said they go through 200 kilos of octopus per day.
Had a siesta, then sangrias in a bar in the sun at the major intersection where I met Scot and Jota. Dinner was a Caldo Gallego (cabbage soup) and another octopus at the same restaurant.Leia mais

Yummy churros and coffee from local cafe to fuel the lovely16km walk through forests of oak, chestnut and gum trees and rolling hills. Stopped at the No Camino cafe for a tostada and french practice. The sun was shining and there were few walkers out. Had an afternoon albarino and siesta and dinner at Teodora Restaurant with Scot from Scotland and Jota from Madrid, both fun characters. Jota was suffering from blisters as he trained by running 5 kms at a time, so got blisters as soon as he exceeded the 5km mark.Leia mais
