Day 35: Melide -> Salceda
25km so not the longest, but apparently it’s a relentless bumpy ride, with steep ups and steep downs the whole way. So expecting today (our penultimate day!) to be quite knackering.
Morning Of Reflection
Slow, sunny morning walking through pretty towns and eucalyptus forests, trying to wrap our heads around how far we’ve come and how much time, that would usually be spent buried in our computers working, has passed while we’ve been on the road.
Santiago In Sight (almost)
Santiago 26km away. Can almost smell the cathedral gargoyles. Early dinner (ft. An enormous stein of lager), early bed, and a 4am start to catch the 12pm pilgrims’ mass. And get our Compostela certificates! Feels so bizarre 😱
