10 photos in 10 minutes

 Posted by LP

I took these photos as we walked through the village of Santa Catalina de Somoza - I am not exaggerating that I took all of them in under 10 minutes - this time it is not just the green doors that attracted me, the blue doors are vibrant and should be shared too 💚

    The walls around the doors are also very interesting!

    The blue doors are giving the green ones a run for their money! But of course the green ones are superior! Lol!

    6th door has me a bit vexed. What’s with the odd trim painting. Regardless, I love that doors represent entering a new phase, whether it's a new world, a new opportunity, or a transformation from one state of existence to another. Just my
    existential 2¢.

    Now I'm wondering where all those doors lead.

I’ve met some nice taxi drivers

 Posted by LP Photo - green glass and metal decor (in restaurant) Circumstances have conspired against me completing this Camino - I am sad that I won’t be walking along, taking photos of green doors, complaining about my feet, being passed by other (younger, faster) pilgrims…..not on this particular Camino anyway - I simply have not sufficiently recovered from my various 2026 health issues to make to Santiago on my own steam - nonetheless I will make it there with the help of taxi drivers (who are very happy to converse with me, even though we are not both speaking the same language!), and the support and assistance of VQT - but don’t worry, I am not missing out on the fun parts, I am all for celebrating VQT’s walking achievements at the end of each day 💚

 Post by LP Photo - 2 Camino Guide Books (Camino Portuguese and Camino Finisterre) If you are reading this, we thank you - it means you are one of the many family and friends interested enough in our trip, our faithful supporters, to pay attention to our photos and ramblings - you are, therefore, much appreciated 💚 Can you bloody believe it?…..we are off on another Camino - I have had a “series of unfortunate events” these past 6 months that have threatened my capacity to take on the rigors of long distance walking, but with the help of several doctors and physical therapists, the encouragement of family and friends, here I am with just a little bit of a limp and (mostly) ready for another Camino adventure :) The photo is of the covers of our guide books - the first section of the trip is the Camino Portuguese, 175 miles from Porto to Santiago de Compostela, the second is a further 75 miles from Santiago to Finisterre via Muxia and the Costa du Morte - what you cannot see in the p...

Day 1. August 25

  Photo: Church bell tower under viaduct.  Today is called “easy” in our guidebook. It is flat but it is 15 miles.  We head to Esposende along boardwalks passing beaches, sand dunes and old windmills.  Esposende was a village in 1572.  It’s been welcoming pilgrims since 1579.   We’ll take it slow and steady today.  Not that we are ever very fast.  Saw many Camino people yesterday so hoping to meet and talk to some as we put one foot in front of the other…
