Day 74 - hotel las Catedrales to Foz

We awoke to a very different day full of greyness and mizzle. Breakfast was quite late at 9.00 meaning everyone turned up at the same time!!
We were on our way by 9.40am. We attempted to start bold but after an hour the mizzle got heavier to a constant fizzing rain that was soaking us - yes the ponchos had to come out. We were following the coastal trail that went past lovely beaches served by a range of ‘surf schools’ offering classes to children- we think it must be Spanish school holidays as these were quite well attended- despite the fog and mizzle.
For some reason our rucksacks felt heavy today - July 4th was hanging heavy!!
As the walk progressed and Foz hoved into view it was a malicious trick as Foz jumped from hill to hill with a huge span of smelly marshland that we seemed to circumnavigate for hours!!
We both plodded into Foz weak with hunger.
We eventually made our way into the town and hit a querty bar where we had to download the app to order food!!
After we had eaten we made our way to our room - it was finally 3.00pm and we were allowed in 🙌
After a shower and a nap we went to investigate Foz further as the Plodicus was hungry again.
After taking the coastal route into town we had a long search for an open pizza restaurant! We persevered and eventually were successful.
We are now back in our room overlooking the grey sea and evening with a herring gull across the way looking at our open window with a beady eye 👁️
Time to rest before our journey tomorrow to Ferrol and the start of the Camino Inglis.
