Planning for the Geira — GO FOR IT!!!

[David Tallan]

it's a logistical nightmare getting to Lobios or Entrimo from my home city of Salamanca

It won't be a logistical nightmare for me this autumn, but I'm sure it will take a lot longer!

I noticed San Xes is not in the book that Wendy translated. Maybe it is considered too far off the Camino? Laurie suggests it is a ways out of town.

Just two kms out of town. Easy stage from Cortegada, so a nice stroll out there after lunch.

I’m surprised that San Xes was omitted from that book. It is, according to googlemaps, 2.4 km from the center of town. An afternoon stroll is one way to do it, but you can also just head straight there when you get to town. If you’ve slept in Cortegada, as you likely will, the total is still under 20 km. I wanted to have the whole afternoon for poking around Ribadavia, as well as a nice lunch, so going to the church on the way in worked best for me.
