Day 88 - Ferrol to La Caridad

After a very nice breakfast in Ferrol we headed for the train station at 8 ready for our 4 hr trip to La Caridad.
It was a trip down memory lane as we passed through many places we walked and travelled through.
The weather was bright and sunny ☀️
We were approaching Ribadeo when the conductor told us we all had to get off the train and wait for the next one! Fortunately not too long a delay
We arrived in La Caridad and headed for our accommodation to be met by quite a taciturn and brusque man. He seriously took our passport information and then led us up many stairs to another sky attic room!
We settled in then headed back into the sunshine for lunch. We found a very friendly restaurant who looked after us very well despite speaking no English. The waiter translated the specials for the day on his phone. When he came back we said what we wanted and he looked confused until Simon baaed like a lamb 🐑 it was an amazing shoulder of lamb baked with potatoes and herbs 🙌 it has gone to number one of our Spanish ‘top of the pots’ meals !!
After lunch it was time for Mary’s treat and we hit a local beach. It was worth the walk a beautiful secluded pebbly beach with crystal clear water.
Then back to the room for shower and chill before heading out for a relaxing beer.
Now time for some sleep before a trip further East to Oviedo tomorrow.Read more
