Saturday 29th of June 2013.
Playing catch up today .... computer glitch, yesterday.
Friday morning, cool, bright, sunny .... only a short distance today, so enjoy breakfast and a coffee in the sun. Pack on back and off ..... on my Jacks Malone and relaxed. Hardly have time to get a stride up and walking through the next town, Prado .... its small spread out residential town. An hour and a half through picturesque country side and enter Silleda, a typical modern rural town easy commute to Santiago. An hour and a half later find myself in Bandeira, very rural, just the hotel, and the train line.
Well I check in and relax, its hot outside, up around the 30's ... very few guests, one other pilgrim couple arrive later .... we are getting close to Santiago, so maybe people are pushing on?
Saturday, breakfast consumed its back on the trail, 5km to Dornelas, then another 5km to San Miguel de Castro, over the Rio Ulla and through Ponte Ulla, Outeiro (had thought about staying here, but decided to go the extra 7km) and on to Susana ... some 23-24km for the day.
Its hot 30C by early afternoon, find a place for lunch and digs for the night. Less than 10km to Santiago now.
