    Sept 18th, Camino day 10
    Rest Day... greatly needed! As it turns out, I did injure my foot a few days ago, and was really grateful for a rest day! We spent half the day napping (lol) and the other half at Acuna Hotel where, for a small fee, you can use the thermal pools and hot tub...oh sweet relief! For a few extra euros, we treated ourselves to a 30 minute visit to the spa and the massaging jets in the jacuzzi (neck, shoulder, back, calf and foot!... amazing). I felt closer to normal after that, and strangely, like a synchronized swimmer!

    Caldas de Reis is crossed by the river Umia and known because of its thermal waters whose composition gives them healing properties. A really charming little town with cobbled streets and interesting points, such as the thermal spring of Las Burgas. In the center of the town is located this curious fountain from which hot water flows, some would even say that burning (the other side is ice cold) We also visited the Roman stone bridge, as well as the cross that is next to it. 

    We dined again at Cafeteria Termas with Ginny from Chicago (who we met earlier in the day) it ended up being a bit of a late day... thanks to some excellent sangria! 💙👣 a wonderful rest day!
