30,589 steps....21.06 kms

Today was mostly flat for a change! We ran into team Brazil and were able to share the way for a bit with them. Plus, I get great shoulder massages from Persio! I feel almost normal, except for my feet!

We left Rubiaes earlier than usual, and I think as tiring as that it, it makes a big difference in your day. Barb says this is the more civilized section with a cafe nearly every 5 kms! lol. Barb, Antonio, and Persio ALL stop for puppies... so this adds time onto our day... and a bit of laughter.

Before leaving Portugal, we decided to detour a bit and walk through the ancient walled city of Valencia... then through what felt like a maze of dark dungeon tunnels before reaching the bridge to cross into Spain.

The city of Tui is a UNESCO historical site, and we're taking a rest day here... foot care and laundry! we MIGHT get out and see the city a bit tomorrow. 💙 when in Spain, it's Buen Comino now!Read more
