Day 42: Cea to O Castro

Miles 13

Quite a short day, but it’s the longest of the remaining days. Im really stretching out this last stage.

Hot today but nice. It’s the day of the week that I get a nicer, more private place to stay.

Im using a washing machine! With soap!! So fresh and so clean lol.

The town i stayed in last night is super famous for their bread. It’s legit great.

We’ve been following the 525 for many days. It’s basically the historical camino, in asphalt

Day 41: Ourense to Cea

Miles 15

Just another great day walking. The day was nice and cool in the morning, and warm enough to dry my laundry this afternoon.

I met a painter, Adam, from Denmark that makes an actual living selling his art. Amazing. I dont have the nerve to ask to see any, lol. Maybe after a beer.

Only 100 km to go!

Lovely day slowly walking with another pilgrim, Alvaro. He has a bad blister and was going super slow. We just walked and talked.

After a long day, we all went out for a tapas and wine tour of the old quarter. It was super fun. I ate a tripe stew that was very good.

A day off tomorrow in Ourense
