Day 9 Tomar to Cortica

Day 9 Tomar to Cortica, Sunday, September 17

Started @ 6:57 am. Finished @ 1:45 pm. 26.9k/16.7m. Walking time 5h19m. Steps 34,048. Calories 1,320.

Ready for the rain and it did rain. Rain gear was handy and took it on/off about 4 times.

Start time had high clouds and perfect for short sleeve tee shirt. Put on the rain gear about 11k mark. A couple down pours with light steady rain mixed in. Thankfully no thunder & lightning.

Met more Americans today - 2 - South Carolina, 3 - Oregon, 1 - Minnesota.

The entire day afforded only one place to stop for coffee. Luckily it was at the half way point. Overall had a lot of dirt trails and some small, paved country roads. Beautiful walking through small villages, forested areas. Days like this the miles past by easily.

Enjoy the journey. Photos have captions. Bom Caminho.Baca selengkapnya
