Camino-day 5, rest day in Tui

steps/kms.... who's counting... maybe, like, 4... we really did rest! Laundry and foot care, a little jaunt to the grocery store for a small lunch charcuterie plate, provisions for tomorrow... then more rest....its wonderful to not feel guilty when resting, it was a beautiful day with a lovely breeze, our room was on 2nd floor and opened onto a huge terrace - with doors and windows open it was just fantastic! We chatted with the host, who told us this property was gifted to the San Clemente family by the 12th pope. In the 20th century, the family returned most of the property to the church, and some very rich person in Florida purchased this plot and bought the statues that are in the courtyard. LOL, Barb was being a caring big sister and booked it because she thought it looked like a cemetary- and I would think that was cool.... lol... it still is! 💙 we popped out for dinner and was thrilled to run into Melissa! a pilgrim we met in Porto! And staying at the same hostel! we visited a bit, then to bed... early day tomorrow.
Temperatures are supposed to be hitting 30 to 32 C in the next few days - this reprieve was much welcome! Back on the path tomorrow. 👣💙Læs mere
