LeAnn took a cab to try and save her feet for a later push to the end, wise move, she may not be able to walk every step, but that OK as its her Camino.
If your going to visit any northern Portugal village,make it Pointe de Lima
this Albergue only opened at 4 pm, so first come first serve.
6am and people start to move towards their clothing, not the French, they are dressed and ready, so if your dressed and ready, why would you turn on all the lights and blind the south African who was still sleeping?.bastards!!!.
She didn't like me anyway, and they are out of there and speeding on trail.
I got mad, my Camino Pat wasn't anywhere to be found. LeAnn was taxiing again today, so Shirl and I dressed as team pink ( the French were wearing pink) and headed out determined to beat them in to Rubiaes.
leaving the Albergue, someone forgot their beige sun hat on the door, I need one. Off we went. |
| An ominous cold front coming in this morning |
from Pointe de Lima, we had an immediate 1200 foot climb, straight up, for some reason my team mate dropped off the pace and I caught up with a lovely man from Slovenia named Alois. He was cracking along at a great pace |
| Alois from Slovenia We struck up a conversation and walked all the way in together from there. He was a fascinating guy, and was Caminoing to celebrate his health.  Ivan ,Shirl and John early this morning
As we climbed through this forest it got chilly, but the pace kept us sweating. Great scenery on the way but very steep and rocky
 
Climbing for about an hours and we got from the valley floor to the top, had to take a breather and some water
Too tired to lift my hands in victory...........to be continued
