Day 33. To Tricastela
Pilgrims on the Camino!
The town which once had 3 castles, now all gone.
Nice walk with great scenery, probably the best of the Camino and unlike anything I have seen in North America. A bit like Peru and also Wales. There were several towns we walked through with cattle in barns right on the Camino with the requisite aromas and flies. Terrible places to live. But in one a woman asked us to stop for a moment. She went into her house and brought out warm crepes on which she sprinkled sugar. Delicious. Of course she asked for a donation and for a blessing in Santiago which we were pleased to provide. We admired her for making an unpleasant part of the day memorable. Weather was foggy to start and sunshine to end.
