Day 39: Vilar de Barrio to Xunqueira de Ambia

Miles 9

It was a very short day, but it was nice to walk slowly and enjoy the cool morning. I also got where I was going before the rain came.

I’ve got the albergue to myself tonight. It’s kind of lonely. My group disappeared on me.

Im arriving to Ourense tomorrow. Its a common starting point for those who walk the minimum distance to get a compostela. That’s the certificate for walking at least 100 km. Im hoping to get some kind of peer group, even if it’s only for a few days.

Most of these small towns have a communal fountain and place to wash clothes, if it were 200 years ago.
Every single one of these old way markers are hand carved
