Today was another 13 mile stage. After 7 days of walking, we’ve covered 98 miles, with a total of 5000′ of climbing.  We’re averaging about 14 miles per day.

An army marches on their stomachs (I think Napoleon said that), so this Perigrino army marches on good food.

✔️!

Today was another rainy start to the hike, but we were soon gifted a rainbow

Along with beautiful views of the coast/sea.

One of the stories that Camino walkers have been talking a lot about over the last couple months are all the fires in Galicia. Here’s a first hand view:

You could still smell the smoke!

Shortly after this, we met an interesting guy from Albany, California. He was walking a reverse Camino, from Santiago to Porto! Nice guy.  His counsel?  Avoid the ‘scenic bypasses’. They aren’t that scenic and they take a lot of extra walking. Okay

Finally, the sun came out, as we walked by a nice beach.

And, as a final note, we found out that Diane is a Hotel heiress! Or at least some distant relative is!

All for now!
