To Balugães

Beautiful countryside to walk through today and plenty of fellow Camino walkers to make the time fly by.

Katie and Ingrid - A mother/daughter duo from Houston and Baltimore

Shelly and JP - A married couple from North Carolina

Eliana- A woman from Paris

Charles - Man from Porto who encouraged Alan to try a couple of local food dishes, one called Rojões com Sarrabulho. When I heard it involved a pork blood porridge, it was a “no” from me.😂

We have some hot days ahead of us. 😬 Temps will be 90 and above for the next four days so we will have to head out very early each day.

We are walking to Ponte de Lima tomorrow and spending two nights. Thankfully, that will have us resting for one of the really hot days. Unfortunately, the hottest day (high of 99 degrees) is the day of our biggest climb up to Alto da Patela. 😩🥵 A Camino is never easy, but I’m really not a fan of hiking in really hot weather. I’m hoping the weather report is lying.😂En savoir plus
