We are one day ahead of our original schedule because of the distance we went yesterday. We booked a wonderful private alburgue and finished our 9 mile hike about 2:00 pm. This place has a wonderful restaurant, spa and hot tub – a real unexpected gem in this section of rural terrain.
The twin cities of Valenca and Tui are separated by the river Minho, and divide the countries of Portugal and Spain. Tomorrow, we will have breakfast in Valenca, Portugal and stop for the day in Tui Spain. We had planned to spend two full days here, but since it is such a short walk, will continue on after only one night in Tui .
Today was spent totally hiking very old stone paths with intermittent time on country roads. Elevation was about 700+ feet. Very easy day by previous “standards”.
The SANGRIA SQUAD is happy. After almost two full days of hiking without ……, finally found it !!!
