India and Nepal 2022
Ponte de Lima to Rubiaes
This has been a great day's hiking through the forest path over the highest point of this Camino trail.
The weather has been good and the views have been really enjoyable including churches nestled into the hillsides and forest landscape.
Margita's knee seems to be improving having knocked her toe into a rock which seems to have popped something back into place. Accident or divine intervention?
As we approached the summit of today's climb, I left a shell from the Pacific coast at the base of the monument which celebrates the high point. As the others walked on, I remained for a few minutes to reflect on the journey so far and to remind myself how lucky I am to do this and so grateful for all my wonderful family and friends. A lovely few moments of inner peace.
Tonight I am staying in a 'mountain lodge' type hostel in the small village of Rubiaes and tomorrow we will reach the Spanish border.

Pam Sounds wonderful - glad you are enjoying better scenery on this part of the Camino. You are obviously enthused by it all. I don't suppose many orthopedic surgeons would recommend a wack on the toe to cure a knee, but if it works, why not! Hope the effects are long lasting and Margita's knee isn't giving her any problems.
