      It was bothersome, but we took it slow. Yes, it is hard on the knees. Hiking poles help. And the pilgrim's rest area just before the downhill started was a nice break. The lady who runs it deserves a medal! --james--

      Monday we arrived in Santiago de Compostela. I have completed the Via de la Plata and Camino Sanabres in two stages after being interrupted by severe tendonitis a year ago at Granja de Moreruela. The approach to Santiago de Compostela from the...

      Sunday 19 May we finally saw the sun part of the day walking from Silleda to Ponte Ulla. Another day of mostly natural paths, and well-drained soil/dirt, so little mud. As is so common on the Camino Sanabres, we saw very few pilgrims along the...

      Today was a rainy, rainy, and rainy day walking the Camino Sanabres from Cea to Estacion de Lalin. And, as I have said a number of times, very beautiful in spite of the unseasonable rain. This was also a 32 kilometer day since our accomodation...

      Today we walked from Ourense to Cea. There are two routes, eastern and westers, Given the rather heavy rain the last few days and the warning that the easters route was prone to flooding and mud after rain, we shose the western route, wanting to...

      Walked to Ourense today. Still intermittent rain today and forecast for tomorrow. Much of the route today was along paved secondary roads, so firm footing and no mud. Galicia is beautiful. Oddly, after we ended for the day, I can no longer open...

      Walked a short day today from Vilar de Barrio to Xunqueiro de Ambia partly in the rain. Gerald Kelly's notes caution about the difficult and treacherous downhill before Xunqueiro de Ambia. It is difficult and slippery, especially after the rain...

      We walked today under cloudy, threatening skies from Laza up the long, steep, unstable climb to Albegueria. Gerald Kelly's notes say that the famous bar where you can sign your name to a shell is closed on Monday, and we were hoping he was...

      To Gerald Kelly, First, my apologies for misspelling your last name. I have your app, and have contributed to you in some way in the past because while the app is "free," I think developers of useful apps deserve to be compensated. I bought your...
