Museo de Prehistoria e Arqueoloxía de Vilalba

This was a short day of 9.37 miles and, although it rained the entire way, it was not unbearable. But it did limit our taking pictures! After gaining elevation yesterday, we are now staying on a high plateau and not returning to sea level for the rest of our walk. Thus, although there are some ups and downs all day, the terrain is pretty gentle compared to most of the stages we have already walked.

Moriah worked at evening out our days to make them similar (shorter) lengths, but the next two days will be longer than we would like. Again, it's because of accommodations. Because of these longer stages and because of the swelling in my ankle, I'm going to have my backpack transported for these two days, a luxury we haven't taken advantage of thus far. I may get spoiled! Moriah made these arrangements for me, which was not easy. If she wasn't doing this for me I would just have carried my pack!

We told the woman working here that we would be leaving at about 7:00 tomorrow and she was stunned. She described it as "noche" (night). Cultures are certainly different!Read more
