Day 36 - Samos to Vilei/Barbadelo

It was a shorter day today, only about 12 miles. A nice walk into Sarria visiting with a young man from the Bavaria region of Germany. The countryside of Galicia is really nice and reminds me of southern Oregon some.

We are about 110 km from Santiago at this point. The vibe of the camino will change from solitude to more people walking as this area is a starting point for many walking the camino on a limited schedule or even a school trip. Other camino routes also join here for the last 100 km into Santiago. We witnessed two larger groups showing up at our hostel tonight. We hope to beat them to the trail in the morning.

We've walked approximately 430 miles to this point. Putting it in perspective, that's like walking from our house in CP to Seattle. It was a little hard to imagine we could have done that. 5 more days and we'll be in Santiago..
