Day 9 Poio to Armenteira

This was a “big hill” day. We knew we were in for a climb up and out of Combarro. First, though, a tasty breakfast at the monastery. Then coffee in Combarro.
Up, up we went with the clouds darkening g along the way. About halfway, the rain began. It wasn’t heavy and it smelled so fresh!
We made it to our hostel by 3:00 and had time to do laundry before the 7pm pilgrimage blessing and Vespers at the monastery here. This is when the nuns sing. It was pretty.
A good dinner at the cafe here - chicken cutlets, a fried egg, potatoes, and salad for 10€.Læs mere
