“The main thing that you have to remember on this journey is, just be nice to everyone and always smile”. Ed Sheeran

Today we started out early to try and beat the heat. We left in the dark and it was quite cool, actually chilly. The path today was mostly rural with farmland, cornfields and vineyards. We had a few Hills but not as severe as the last few days and the walk was quite nice.

My brother-in-law David woke up this morning feeling a bit icky and I’m afraid I may have passed my illness on. As of this evening he is feeling a bit better (good enough for beer and ice cream), so that is good.

We sampled some of the grapes from The Vineyards along the trail and I had my first taste of octopus at a small cafe where I stopped for a beer.

Tomorrow is considered a short day as it should be only about 12 miles. We plan on a little later start around 8:00 a.m. so we can sleep in a bit.

Only 2 more days before Santiago!

Here are the pics of the day. Enjoy

Buen Camino
