Day 72 - Tapia de Casariego to Ribadeo

We didn’t sleep so well due to noisy hotel 😵‍💫
We hopped across the road to the cafe for breakfast and sat next to 4 giggly civil guards!!
Then time to pack up and set off.
Simon made a sad discovery that his walking shoes had holes in the top of his shoe 😳
We hope they will last for the next 3 weeks but decided to buy a cheap replacement just in case. We found there was a large decathlon store in Ribadeo so Trevor was reset to take us there.
The Plodicus started off moodily and raced off at quite a clip. This is because he’s prehistoric.
We went around the coast but we’re glad we had got lots of pics yesterday as it was pretty dull and overcast today.
We passed a school party of teenagers going for a swim on the beach.
We had to walk over an immense bridge to cross from Asturias into Galicia.
It was quite scary being that high up over the estuary and looking down.
We stopped for a drink as we got into Ribadeo, then set off for decathlon. This was in the middle of a retail park.
As Simon was trying on his new shoes an Irish man came up to chat. He shocked Simon by telling him just to throw the old ones away!!
Simon said he would not as he is a sentimental person - he will wear them until they fall off 😆
So we got our purchases and headed back to town for some lunch.
Then into our room for the night.
We have an early start tomorrow as we are visiting ‘Cathedral beach’ with all its caves and magnificent rock arches. We have to get there when the tide is low for the best experience.
We have been happy to find a kettle here so have managed a cup of tea. We can also have a coffee in the morning before our adventures.Baca selengkapnya
