A day of hills today and cloudy skies as we set off. I love seeing the little traditional old grain stores dotted about, many are no longer used but they are so in sympatico with the villages, love them.
All the pilgrims on this road have a bit of encouragement, zoom in😊
Lovely walking through forests and very old settlements.
Most villages have a little water bath where ancient pilgrims would bath their tired feet and wash. This one was from the 1800's, so fantastic.
Always like to see healthy grapevines.
Wonderful old churches, all locked up.
We arrived into Betanzos, hot and tired and ready for the washing, showering, food routine only to discover it's Galicia's annual holiday today, hence all the fireworks we heard as we were walking into town. Supermarkets all shut but managed to get water for tomorrow from a petrol station. Restaurants open for dinner at 8.30 here, I'll be ready to eat the table leg by then 😊
