2July Fonfria to San Mamed

Dinner last night was in a round house- just like any other Gallic round house. Long tables, vegetable soup followed by beef and potatoes, finished by Santiago tarte. Washed down with much local red wine-yum.

Started to day above, well in the clouds, then descended through them from around 1300m to 600m.

It was really a beautiful morning, sun blocked out, walking through fields and quiet roads to enter the town of Triacaslela, as the name suggests once the site of 3 castles- alas no more.

As the day progressed we walked up and down, through very small villages. So small if you blinked even walking, you would have missed them!

We are in a small private albergue new and very friendly, looking forward to dinner - again! Tomorrow we pass through Sarria the start for many peregrino. it is the last "big" town to start outside the 100km. ( one needs to walk more than 100km to obtain a compastella). We will have less than this to walk tomorrow night......
