I guess a good night's sleep without the cacophony of a room of snoring maestros is a good thing because today was a great walk. It ended up just shy of 13 miles along a quiet country road. The pathBaca lagi

We had a good rest day in León. We caught up with friends, did a little resupply and failed at getting more cash. It is very risky putting your ATM card into a machine here as it may not come back.Baca lagi

The foot traffic out of Portomarin this morning was pretty crazy. We were expecting way more Pilgrims but it was still shocking to what we are accustomed to. The new Pilgrims on the trail stand outBaca lagi
