58.4km more to go

I figured I should post a pix with me in it so you know I was actually along for the trip.

Today was a 23.4km rolling hills trek, starting at Alto de Mamoa and ending in Castro. My legs and feet are very sore today and we have a 26.5km trek tomorrow.

6.4km to Marcela. We got a stamp here.

7.4km to Meson. We had a picnic lunch just before Meson. Today’s lunch was pasta in a light cream sauce with spinach, tomato, chunks of cheese plus a salad with walnuts, raisins, dried cranberries, carrot, corn plus bread and orange slices for dessert. Yum!

5.8km to Sobrados Dos Monxes. Here is where we found a monastery of the same name which dates back to the 12th century.

3.8km to Castro. Here Jorge was waiting with the van to take us back to visit the monastery and have a refreshment. Kyle, Hank and me are pictured outside in the plaza. Thanks Hank for buying the round of drinks including hot chocolate milk for the boys.

I’ll post various pictures I took along todays route then I must soak my aching body. Lucky we are staying Guitiriz Hotel Balneario again tonite.
