While rain in Galicia is a virtual certainty, we may have had more than our share. Furthermore, on Monday, the DAY AFTER WE FINISH and for the foreseeable future, perfect weather is forecasted.
With that backdrop, today promises to be challenging in that rain is forecasted for the entire day. Not that you ever get used to walking in constant rain, but generally if you have the right gear you are able to stay semi-dry. The problem becomes the heat generated while climbing a steep path is trapped within the waterproof jacket with no way to escape. Cold rain on the outside – —- burning up on the inside!
Today we hiked just under 12 miles and most of it was on either sandy stone paths or very muddy trails exasperated by Camino bikers eliminating what solid footing we could have had.
Everyone should understand one thing – this is absolutely beautiful country that is probably not being fairly portrayed by our blog because of the extended preponderance of RAIN.
We were blessed to see several old church structures along the way, with an untold number of medieval stone crosses and other relics that dated back more than 1500 years.
Crossed a very windy and rainy bridge as we entered the town of Radon, where we will spend the night.
TWO MORE DAYS!
