Camino Part II - Day Eight
6. kesäkuuta, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 64 °F
Padrón to Santiago
~24 km/15 miles

Final day of my Camino this year!

Another misty day requiring rain gear all day.

I got an early start, and walked alone for a couple of hours until I met Debbie from Seattle, another Camino "repeat offender" on her 4th Camino.

We had a similar pace, and arrived in Santiago around noon.

I got settled into my room at San Martín Pinario, and was delighted that instead of being towards the end of the long hall, my room was the first one from the elevator. But there's enough distance across the hallway that it's not noisy.

Jzionna is also back in Santiago. I made a dinner reservation at the Green House restaurant and invited those I had spent time with on this second part of my Camino to join us.Lue lisää

Today was definitely rainy. Not heavy, but wet enough that I needed my rain gear most of the day. I walked about half the day with Roxanne from North Carolina. I met with Brad for dinner again, where we had paella at a Mexican theme restaurant. 😂Lue lisää

Pontevedra to Caldas de Reis
~21 km/13 miles

Another pretty walk in green Galicia!

When I woke up I could hear cars driving on wet streets outside, so I donned my rain gear, but it was just a light rain that didn't last long.Lue lisää

Pontesampaio to Pontevedra
~11.5 km/7 miles

Another day of repeat scenery to Pontevedra. I had only walked through when I was here 12 days earlier, knowing that I would have a chance to spend more time here later.

I met a couple of women as I turned off to take the river variant into Pontevedra - Rosemary from Vancouver Island, and Marian from the Netherlands. We walked together and agreed to meet for dinner. I also invited Brad from San Diego, who I hadn't seen since O Porriño since he had stayed in different places the last couple of days.Lue lisää

O Porriño to Pontesampaio
~23.4 km/14.5 miles

Part of today's walk was a repeat of my Day 25 on Part I. The Coastal and Central routes join at Redondela. On my first time through I stayed in Arcade. This time I stayed across the river in Pontesampaio.

All morning as I was walking I was thinking about having lunch at the restaurant with the robot servers, which had really good burgers. But when I was about an hour away I realized that it was Monday, and many restaurants are closed on Mondays. Unfortunately, that was true of this restaurant. 😔Lue lisää

Paços to O Porriño
~26 km/16 miles

I got an early start in hopes of beating the heat, but the heat wave broke, and the temperature was very pleasant for walking - plus there was a lot of shade along the route.

I arrived in Valença, the last town on the Camino in Portugal very early, while everything in the walled old town was closed. I walked the ramparts that surround the town, and coukd see the Spanish town of Tui across the river.

After leaving Valença I walked across the bridge which joins Portugal and Spain.

A while after leaving Tui there was quite a dramatic increase in pilgrims on the trail, since many who want to walk the final 100 km to receive their Compostela certificate start there.

I met Brad from San Diego (he started from Porto, not Tui) whom I identified as American by the Trader Joe's sunscreen spray sticking out of his backpack.

Not long after meeting Brad we came to the turn-off for a slightly longer, but more scenic variant along the river where Jen, another American seemed to be debating her options. I urged her to come with us on the variant, and we had a great time walking together.

Brad and I both had places booked in O Porriño, but Jen had cobbled together her own itinerary, and took a bus to Vigo after the three of us had some tapas together.Lue lisää

Camino Part II - Day Two
31. toukokuuta, Portugali ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F
Labruja to Paços
~17.8 km/11 miles

I walked with Julie from my guesthouse today, but she wants to squeeze in the Spiritual Variant and still arrive in Santiago on June 6th, so she walked farther than I did. So, I won't see her again until Santiago.

Today was the day with the steepest, gnarliest climb of the Portuguese Camino, and I was happy to do it in the morning. When I walked this route in 2019 that climb came at the end of a hot day when I walked over 30 km/19 miles!

I spent the night at a really cool albergue called Quinta Estrada Romana which had a nice communal dinner.Lue lisää

MatkaajaTerri, I love the fact that you’re taking the slow lane on this bit of your time in Portugal. I remember passing through Labruja when I walked the Centrale last year, and as with you previously, we tend to rush through these places as we head to that day’s final destination.

Ponte de Lima to Labruja
~9.75 km/6 miles

Since I took the bus to Ponte de Lima instead of walking I was able to split my planned 27.6 km day into two walking days. Today's walk was very short.

I had booked a guest house in Labruja and though I wanted to get a fairly early start to beat the heat I was worried that I would get there too early. But I sent the owner a WhatsApp message around 9 am asking if I could leave my backpack until my room was ready. She responded promptly that I was welcome to come in whenever I got there, and that my room was already ready.

There was quite a bit of elevation gain over the 9.75 km, so I was happy that I was walking before the day heated up.

It was a really nice walk through a lush green valley.

When I arrived at the guesthouse there were signs directing me to the back door, which was open. No one was home, so I didn't know which room was mine, so I sent the owner another message, and she told me that I could choose any of the three guest rooms. So I picked the room with the prettiest bed. 😊

After a shower and washing my clothes I decided to set out for the only place to eat in the area - a small store/café which was about 20 minutes away.

On the way there I had to cross a small stream on a suspension bridge, and I noticed some trails down by the stream. After my lunch of a ham and cheese sandwich, chips, and a Coke I decided to explore the trails on my way back. I discovered that there was a small "Ecovia" along the stream, and like the Route of Stone and Water there were old watermills on either side.

It was getting pretty hot again, so I was glad that I was able to explore the area without my backpack.

It seemed that I might be the only guest at the house that day until about 5 pm, when Julie, a young German woman arrived. I was happy to have the company! Our hostess made us a dinner of steak, fried egg, plain spaghetti noodles, and salad. I smooshed my egg into my pasta and topped it with parmesan cheese, which tasted quite good.Lue lisää
