Day 29 – Sarria to Portomarín

The walk out of Sarria for the third time was as exciting as ever.

We share the Camino with the cows

The terrain in Galicia is brutal. They say rolling hills but today was a great deal of climbing. It is a hard start for Heather and Rebecca, but they did a great job. Getting use to backpack, changing trail beds and lots of climbing can be daunting. But stopping at bars (cafés) several times a day for coffee and food makes it bearable.

Lots of people on the Camino.
Juice bar now at one of my favorite bars on top of a long climb.

Getting to this village at the end of a long days means climbing straight up about four flights of stairs. But we made it.

I am a woman of age reinventing myself in my 70’s. I owned a restaurant for 36 years, was a high school CTE instructor in Culinary Arts, and I’m now looking for my next chapter in life. I am restless. I do know that hiking, travel, and sharing my love of food and wine will play a part in my new adventures.
