Monday 20th of August 2012,
Started my walk towards Santiago de Compostela, From Lisbon Cathedral to Alverca do Ribatejo, about 25km ... and retracing footsteps of last week, except opposite direction. Walk nothing special,
walking on foot paths and on the verge of the road, walking through light industrial areas, beside train tracks. Warmish today, low 30's but walked in the cool of the morning ... tempo a bit slower today,but made it to Alverca about 12.30 .... some lunch then off to my accommodation, clean up and a rest as tired after to days walk. Haven't seen any scallop shells or signs to say I was on the Caminho Portuguese ... traditionally I believe it starts in Porto? Ah well its still about 300km to Porto.
