      I saw this house near Playa de Mera decorated with a million seashells. The 86-year-old owner said her father asked the whole family to gather shells to decorate the house, which took many years. How special it must be to live in a house like that.

      When I reached Mera, I had walked 16 miles. It was still a long way to A Coruña when I saw a bakery—longing for energy-giving sweets. I went in, but the bakery was closing, and she had nothing left. Very disappointed, I asked her if she had a...

      There is a place named after me, Mera. I visited the Town of Mera, Beach Mera, and the lighthouse, Faro Mera. In Mera, pretty much all the businesses are name Mera something.

      It was about 8 miles from the Hotel La Terraza in Miño to Sada. I had a nice lunch at this restaurant. I went up the side street on the left side of this restaurant, and I was on AC 163, then eventually on AC 162 toward A Coruña. Although the...

      The bridge crossing was a bit scary for me. It's like crossing the bridge to Ribadeo. The pedestrian path is very narrow, and the guardrail is low. I tried not to look down by covering the river view with my hiking umbrella. After the bridge...

      I looked up Wikiloc for a walk from Miño to A Coruña, but the routes all included walking N651 at some segments, which I would never do. Finally, I talked with some locals and found a way to avoid it: crossing a bridge. One can follow the Camino...

      Thanks! I don't know how to post “live,” so I just added to last year's posting. I'm writing more for my record to read back later, and let my family know I am doing okay.

      Could be. I thought they were too heavy to be a part of the airplane. Perhaps for a ship? Or a part of Chicago's deep tunnel? I remember reading about Chicago building a deep tunnel to prevent sewer back-up. Someone ( oh, I'm glad it wasn't...

      I love those beautiful artistic shells! I missed seeing them in Ferrol, but would have bought one as a momento. I looked for roasted chestnuts while walking, but never came across any being sold this time. I did boil a few that I picked up on the...

      The hotel I always stay at (Hotel Crisol) in Miño was closed for the winter. Luckily, Hotel La Terraza was open. It’s in the middle of the town, so it helped me with my next long segment, from Miño to A Coruña; I will post more later. I am three...
