Friday night = vino tinto

Posted by LP

I have a couple of health concerns that are interfering with my love of walking….but they are not interfering with my love of vino tinto 💚🍷

    Pace yourselves! I know how much you love the Camino, but your health and wellness must always come first. Be safe! Miss you both.

Are we there yet?

 Posted by LP Today was 14 miles, not too hilly (but enough hilly to make us believe we achieved something), cool in the morning, hotter and sunnier as the day progressed - it took us about 5 hours (with a few brief breaks) and when we arrived at our destination, we stopped at the first bar/cafe along with a bunch of other pilgrims - now we have completed approximately 60 miles in 5 days….only another 400 to go! Photo - teapot and teacup sign outside cafe Photo - LP and VQT, with Tina from Germany, at dinner last night - we had the “pilgrim’s menu” = 15 euros each for salad, pasta, fresh fruit (melon) and red wine - we were so hungry we ate it all  Photo - Camino Arrow sign…..crocheted  Photo - graffiti of heart and smiley face  Photo - green door covered in graffiti  Photo - green door with “for sale” sign Photo - delightful house and garden with vines and geraniums  Photo - graffiti of a menacing face  Photo - VQT at green grocers (we bought bananas)...

Day 2. Sept 2nd

Closing the Circle

 Posted by LP We met Natalie and Graves (not sure I have the correct spelling, sorry for any errors) when we walked the (almost) 5 miles into Santiago early on Tuesday morning, before dawn - our hotel was slightly off the Camino and we were a little disoriented when we saw the headlights of Natalie and Graves - they got us back on track (and showed no signs of judgement in doing so) - we walked together until the big Santiago de Compostela city sign - last night we met them again at our favourite restaurant, The Green Door - so one of the pleasures of the evening was to recognize the lovely “connection” we made on our short walk together and bid a fond farewell  Photo - Natalie and Graves at The Green House restaurant  Photo - Graves, Natalie, LP and VQT
