This is scheduled to be a relatively short walk today, 6.1 miles. It looks like we need to vacate our lodging in San Martin del Camino by 8:00 am. Perhaps we can stretch that by staying for an extra cup of coffee.
I believe we have gone from the area of Pintxos to the area of Tapas. Each area doesn’t conscious calling the snack served at a bar by the competing name.
The mornings seem to be darker later. It’s 8:00 am and it seems pitch black outside.
Hospital de Ôrbigo is the town before the one where we stayed. They have this great bridge and, as we later found out, a field where they still have jousting matches. I didn’t get a photo but it is the green patch to the left of the bridge.
Villages de Ôrbigo is a small remote village. There was only one choice for dinner. There was only one other pilgrim couple eating so we sat with them. They were a lovely Brazilian couple now living in Portugal. They had spent a long time working in the US so they had good English. They were able to give us some pointers for our time in Portugal.
