India and Nepal 2022
Santa Iria to Vilafranca de Xira.
It's another hot day (84 degrees) and the first few miles are spent walking along the N 10 major road North. We constantly switch sides to find a piece of pavement to escape the lorries, coaches and cars.
This is suburban industrial Portugal and walking on asphalt in this heat is quite tough going.
But as always on the Camino, there are other experiences such as walking along the river on a nature reserve walkway and then towards the end of the day, another riverside walk as we approach Vilafranca de Xira.
This is also the pilgrimage route to Fatima and locals are amazed that we are walking well beyond this site right up to Santiago!
