Ribadiso to O Pedrouzo. Day 32

Another very rainy wet day. I left at about 7:3o in the dark and walked with Gerard, the Catholic priest I met a while back. We had some great conversations and were very glad to have each other's company. It made the walk in the rain pass by that much faster  

Stopped for coffee once and then just kept plugging along. At one point we gave up on our hoods. After all, how much wetter could we get between the rain and the sweat?  

Regardless of the rain it was a beautiful walk. No one would probably believe us , but we saw sun peeking through the heavy clouds--just for a moment red/orange showing itself to us. 

Walked through eucalyptus forest that smelled heavenly. Then arrived about 12:30.  After showering and handing over our laundry we had a delightful lunch of soup and salmon (Gerard had chicken ) followed by homemade yogurt with locAl honey on top. With vino tinto of course. 

Looking forward to arriving in Santiago tomorrow. Gerard had now walked 1500 k!  We have 18 to go. Amazing
