Day 20 Viana do Castelo to Caminha

It is our last day in Portugal. Tomorrow we cross over into Spain. Portugal did not disappoint on its final day of 17 miles. We started through cobble stoned country roads between large walls.

As we moved through this varied views, we frequently hat views of the seas. Finally we ended with a beautiful walk along the coast with a small breeze.

We met some ladies from the Philadelphia area - Charlene and Jen - and walked with them for a few miles and a girl from the Netherlands. Getting to talk with others makes the walk go faster.
