Halfway between Muxia and Finisterre. Beautiful beach here, but the water was a little cold.
Beautiful day in Muxia. There was a festival featuring pirates and bagpipes. Bagpipes in Spain might seem strange, but this corner of Spain, Galicia, has a strong Celtic heritage.
I really enjoyedRead more
I'm going up to A Coruña for a few days, then onto Madrid and my flight home.
This is where the Camino to the coast splits between Finisterre and Muxia
Nice walk between Negreira and Santa Mariña. Galicia is very nice, and I've been enjoying wonderful weather. I'm stretching out the walk to Finesterre by walking to Muxia first.
I passed the 100 km to Santiago marker this day.
Woo hoo! That's only five days for you! Did I tell you my plane flew over Santiago on my flight home? :)
I got to Santiago on Monday. I was going to start walking to Finisterre with Dom and Jo, the Australian couple we met back in Larrasoaña, but Dom got sick, so they rested a day, then took the bus.
Beautiful walk this day to Samos, which is one of the prettiest little places on the Camino. It has quite an impressive monastery, which draws tourists. It has been harder to get a place to sleepRead more
