Decided to walk through Sarria and go to the next Albergure 5 kilometers past Sarria. Sarria is important because it is the last major village before Santiago. You have to show that you went through Sarria to get your certificate or Compestelle. Many many people start here and walk the final 100 klicks. Jerry calls them plastic pilgrims or pretend pilgrims because they have not suffered like us and as I have said Pilgrims have to suffer. They cannot have fun and they cannot swear. Shyte!
2 euros for a glass, 3 euros for a bottle. Man oh man how I love this country.
Our pilgrim meal tonight.
Dinner for 12 euros or about 20 bucks. But remember we have to suffer so forget that you saw these pictures. They will self destruct after the pilgrimage is over.
Typical terrain
Done 670 klicks so far. About 100 to go.
Jerryisms:
“I am so hungry I could eat the scabs off of a badger.”
When describing another Pilgrim who walks very fast: “He takes off like a scalded cat.”
Read ya tomorrow. Galicia province is so beautiful. God’s country but it does rain a lot.
Cheers.
Not sure what you were eating but the wine looks good. You didn’t tell me you got to slide down things, I might have changed my mind about going……… not
Cheers Dot
Lol. Mixed grill of chorizo,pork ribs and beef steak.
That meal looked really good.
Can’t believe the prices.
Safe journey,

It was and lots of it.

OK, I am going to send in a nomination for “Best Supporting Actor”, you really got into the method acting and that one line you had at the end was really heartfelt, you could feel the passion in it.
What line?
When you picked up the water bottle and said “Holy Fack”, you could feel that you meant it.
