Eirexe to Melide

Another misty morning to start our 3rd from last day on the Camino. The mornings have been so beautiful. Quiet and peaceful. Jim and I found the only open place for coffee about 3 miles into our walk. As Kathy mentioned, it's been more challenging lately to find places to eat. A couple of hours after we start, the way becomes more crowded. There are so many people doing the final 100 km that at times it's hard to keep our pace. We're meeting new people and reconnecting with some old friends. It's hard to believe it's almost over. We stopped for the day in the small city of Melide which is famous for pulpo (octopus.) Jim ordered it and we all tried it. I thought it was surprisingly good. Our accommodations for tonight included a pool!!! The water was cold but it felt so good on my legs. We'll probably head out for dinner later since this town seems to have so many delicious looking options.
