Day 36 Portomarin to Portos

12 miles. Dense fog to start, eventually burning off to become a lovely, sunny, mild day. Remember all those hills in the photos, well today, the path led up and down only the big ones. Many pilgrims; the trick is at stay ahead or behind the groups. Then you can walk in peace. I am only 2.5 miles east of Palas de Rei, and feel great, but have elected to walk shorter distances vs the really long walks in the book. I am in a lovely stone Inn, with one private room with bath upstairs, as well as an 8 bed traditional albergue. There is an inviting patio and bar with a great deal of pilgrims stopping. The inn is not even in a village; it is a wide spot in the road. I met up with Kathy from Texas who I first walked with about 2 weeks ago, and a stimulating visit with British friends, walking from Sarria. 

I will probably see them here and there over the next week.
Another great day!
