Today is the longest day with lots of hills according to the book, so all I really have to share is" I walked and walked" . just got into our night stop, had a nap and a shower, in that order, now posting a few views of the day. The feet are getting better as I try a few ideas, thanks Gus.
early start from our abode and into the farmland. The yellow arrow is the Camino we are doing, the blue is the pilgrimage to Fatima from Porto. That is happening now and we will be passing the groups in the next day or two coming the other way. The potugese form large groups with support vehicles and do this every year in the hopes of seeing the lady appear at the cathedral.

Coming off this farm lane there was a HUGE dog that weighed about 5 lbs, which nipped me, the little bastard. I then had a laugh because in knew john was about 15 minutes behind me and he would get nailed too, I forgot he had sticks, so he bravely fought him off.

Now below, that's called two things, 1) I can eat what I want at anytime because I'll work if off in 10 minutes, or 2) breakfast

Today its breakfast, guilty free with a coffee.

Lots of country lanes and forest today

the spring flowers are out

Say a prayer ,looking for help up the next hill, and on we go

Like I would forget
